Speaker reminds graduates to take note of the mile markers on the way to the milestones
In her speech at the 快活app鈥檚 graduate Commencement on June 3, 快活app alumna Susana Cordova encouraged departing graduate students to celebrate not only the milestones in their lives, but also the mile markers, which she described as 鈥渢he signs that tell us where we are in the journey of our lives.鈥
Cordova, who received her undergraduate degree in English from the 快活app in 1988 and is now the acting superintendent of Denver Public Schools, described the mile markers she experienced growing up in a working-class, Spanish-speaking home in southwest Denver 鈥 going to school every day, doing her homework, going to church, and participating in the democratic process by caucusing and voting every year.
