My Daughter’s College Career Has Been Cut Short By Coronavirus via SheKnows
After three and half years, it’s over. She ran her last race without knowing it was her final time on the track.
The class of 2020 — that is how they were ushered in four years ago, and who they were supposed to be. In a few weeks, they were supposed to be celebrating. Hotel rooms have been booked, dinner reservations made, parties planned. There are supposed to be caps and gowns, tears and photos. Until the pomp and circumstance just wentJust a few weeks ago, I said to my daughter, “I can’t believe you are graduating in May.” And yet of course I could.
This recent development, though, I can’t believe. And neither can my daughter, her classmates, or all the other college seniors and their families. Graduating from college and entering the “real world” under normal circumstances is scary enough. This is not normal, and we have no idea when things will get back to “normal” for the world as we face a global pandemic.
What I do know is that the class of 2020 is a smart, strong, determined and capable group of young adults who want to change the world for the better. They have been asked to do just that — only a little earlier than they intended.
