A Message to Seniors from CEO Brantley Dear Graduates, Seniors, congratulations on earning this moment. There is perhaps no greater choice – in this chapter of your life – than to become a college graduate. By declaring your college or university of choice, you immediately broaden the opportunities you will experience…the people you will meet…and the places around the globe you will go. Going to and through college is all about YOU. It’s about you making good choices and preparing yourself for an exceptional, purpose-filled life. It’s about you investing in yourself, believing in yourself and taking a risk. Going to and through college is all about YOU.
