The following essay is adapted from remarks made to the Thomas Aquinas College Board of Governors on February 25, 2023.
By JohnPaul Beckman (’23)
Port O’Connor, Texas
With great joy, members of the Class of 2023 received their diplomas this morning at the 49th annual Commencement of Thomas Aquinas College, California. Always bittersweet, this day of farewells was especially so for this year’s graduates, who missed the presence of their late classmate, Maggie Yanoschik (’23).
Alongside 74 diplomas, Thomas Aquinas College dispensed its highest honors to friends and benefactors at this year’s California Commencement.
After raucously celebrating the conclusion of their studies by jumping in the pool and boasting of their accomplishments, the seniors in California settled down on Wednesday evening for a more refined celebration: the President’s Dinner.
