I have been teaching at Metro for 16 years. My fondest memories are the ear to ear smiles of our graduates at commencement. Every time I volunteer to work at the ceremony, I make it a point to shake each one of their hands and congratulate every single Aviation and Aerospace graduate.
The proof in the pudding comes many years down the road. On several occasions I have stepped onto a commercial aircraft only to find one of our department graduates on the flight deck. It is at that moment that my pride swells and my confidence soars because I know that they have had the finest training in the world and my life will be safe in their hands.
I salute each and every Aviation and Aerospace Metro graduate and I look forward to the memories of those to come.
