Democracy is not a hope but a reality. The graduating class of 2011 has fulfilled that reality with their active perseverance in completing their degree programs and their commitment to a global awareness through education.
We persevere through an honest introspection of ourselves. The person who is educated is one who embraces and fully accepts the principles of an education. Such a person becomes the master of these principles and through their application is able to create realistic models that children, parents, family and friends can build upon.
Education is meant to transform and inspire one towards awareness and achievement. We all carry the knowledge of our collective ancestors who sacrificed their culture, traditions, and their lives for our benefit. This knowledge sometimes created restrictions in what we could achieve.
There is a paradigm that suggest that sometimes one should think outside of the box to be creative. I believe the time has come to throw away the box and work and create without any restrictions.
You the graduates here tonight have demonstrated that everything can be achieved wit faith, work, and perseverance.
Boricua College has embraced you and facilitated your learning and tonight you are graduates of the world.
You are the hope of the world with the ability to create and become the anchors on which we can build the future.
Congratulations class of 2011
