BGSU public relations major applauds her fellow seniors
Meredith Troxel to Class of 2020: ‘Congratulations, you will always be a Falcon!'
The announcement of remote learning continuing for the rest of the spring semester came with many questions and a lot of uncertainty.
Students, organizations and Faculty and Staff at Bowling Green State University had to quickly put everything on hold and re-evaluate the semester. Students left campus without realizing that they might not have the opportunity to see their friends again until fall. Many groups were affected, including those students graduating in May.
Seniors were especially flooded with thoughts. How will I finish student teaching or clinicals? How will I finish my required lab course? How will I finish my internship? Will commencement be canceled? Thanks to the hard work from Faculty and Staff, their questions were answered quickly and with empathy. A big “thank you” is owed to BGSU President Rodney K. Rogers and the rest of the University, as we likely will still be able to celebrate our graduation with a commencement ceremony at a later date.

Meredith Troxel is a Bowling Green State University senior majoring in public relations from Sandusky, Ohio. After graduation, she would like to work in higher education for a university's communications department.
