Graduate Hooding and Graduation

Graduation came and went, and, like usual, I was a little slow on updating the blog. If we learned anything about nostalgia this year in our capstone seminar, however, is that distance makes the heart grow fonder. This year, the award for Excellence in Public Heritage went to Benjamin Remillard. Check out some of the pictures below to see Ben, Kerry, and the Sarahs enjoying their last moments in the sunlight that is graduate school....at least for the time being of course. 

As for their plans for the future: Kerry will begin pursuing her second Master's degree (this time in library science) at Rutgers starting in the fall; Sarah Vedrani  is currently enjoying an archaeology field school through the Strawberry Banke Museum; and Sarah Sedman and Ben are both currently looking for work as high school history teachers before they eventually return to school to pursue their PhDs.  

Enjoy the summer, everyone!
