"When you joined the many new faces on this campus, I was one
of those new faces. Together we shared an excitement for the possibilities
and opportunities ahead of us..."
-- Peggy R. Williams |
"By
the authority vested in me by the regents of the University of the
State of New York and the trustees of Ithaca College, I hereby confer
upon each of you the degree for which you have been recommended
by the faculty, with all the rights, privileges, and honors pertaining
thereto."
With
those words delivered at the May 19 Commencement ceremony by President
Peggy R. Williams, the 1,318 members of the class of 2001 officially
made their passage from students to alumni.
