It is a sad realization that many are leaving our community, but a tinge of sweetness enters one's senses when thinking of when we will see them next, and the great things our amazing seniors will accomplish once they are out in the world.

This will be the last time for many of us to see our graduating seniors. For one last time we can share stories, laughs, and tears.

So join us to celebrate with our seniors and relax or take a break before finals kick in.
