Congratulations on earning your degree from UC Santa Cruz. While Santa Cruz will always stay in your hearts, many of you will now continue your life as you tackle goals and challenges that will take you in so many directions.
Remember, "Be thankful for the difficult times, because during those times you grow."
Whenever you hit a bump on the road, be grateful for each experience, even the bad ones, for they all make up who we are.
Best of luck to you all in your professions.
God willing, a hike in Santa Cruz will always be a flight or drive away for when we need to remember what we are grateful for.
Cheers, Jose

No sabes que alegria nos embarga a Lourdes y a mi el ver que culminas exitosamente tus estudios Universitarios (primer nivel), porque estoy seguro, -conociendote- que continuaras formandote en areas academicas de postgrado. Pero esto fue posible, debido a tu actitud, aptitud, madurez e inteligencia para los estudios, que vencio a todas las dificultades que se te pudieron presentar a lo largo de tu carrera; igualmente, al apoyo incondicional en todas las areas, de tu familia mas cercana; en tu corazon, tienes a esas personas que fueron y son tu guia y sosten. Yo en particular, me enorgullezco de tener una hija que le dedica a su hijo todo el amor de madre que le cabe en el pecho, para que su hijo haya culminado no una carrera sino dos, ustedes son un binomio expectacular; pero pecaria de injusto si no nombrara a Jorge, porque sin ese pilar de apoyo a su familia y ese batallar diario sin descanso, estoy seguro que Irene no hubiera podido sola con esa gran tarea que estas culminando. Nieto querido, para mi ya estas asimilado en todas las areas a la cultura de US, aparte, que eres ciudadano con todas las de la ley, de esa nacion, significa que tienes por delante las infinitas oportunidades que el sistema Estadounidense ofrece, y seguramente lo aprovecharas en todo los sentidos. Muchos exitos en tu desempeño laboral y en la vida en general, dios te bendiga y te cuide Manny.
Tu abuelo Angel.

As a graduate of the extraordinary Class of 2020 you and your classmates have shown impressive resolve in completing your studies during a senior year filled with unprecedented challenges - graduate student strikes, a virus pandemic, and acts of racial violence that fueled sorrow and rage across this country. The resilience, compassion, responsibility, and social awareness you’ve gained from this historic experience will serve you well throughout life and ensure that you and your fellow 2020 grads will lead this world to a better future.
Despite the unexpected ending to your time at UC Santa Cruz, this great accomplishment and the memories of four years in a beautiful place by the sea will be yours forever. I love you so much Ellie and I wish you courage, joy, and fulfillment as you follow your dreams and find your path forward. On to the next adventure!
Love, Mom

There’s a lot of uncertainty in this next chapter (even more so now with the pandemic). In the start of your career, you will try out different roles and sometimes fail (like I did), but every failure only leads us to where we should ultimately be, bc we should all do a job that you excel and are talented in. Though natural talent should also be coupled with hard work and discipline to improve our skill sets and become even better at what we do. That’s how we become valuable and indispensable in the workforce!
Now, let me cut your hair, so we can take grad photos! ^_^
Congrats again!! <3, Caroline
