For everyone receiving their diploma today, this day likely has many facets despite all the joy, as Principal Steffen Benz notes. The pride in what has been achieved is surely mixed here and there with a touch of wistfulness, perhaps even concern about what lies ahead. A typical phrase like “Now the future begins!” combines its promise with expectations and demands. But there’s one thing you can count on both during and after your school years: You’re never alone, and the contacts and connections you make at school will support and connect you—perhaps for a lifetime. With a twinkle in his eye, the principal shares a piece of wisdom from author Benedict Wells with the newly graduated professionals: “Friendships in school are like friendships in prison: you don’t know what they’re worth until you’re out in the real world.”
