Foundation Newsletter Page 3 EFSC Celebrates Graduation in a Whole New Way T here were drive-ups, virtual ceremonies and alumni t-shirts to make our graduates know how important their graduation was for them and the College. On May 14, EFSC celebrated the Spring 2020 graduation with a special Virtual Commencement Ceremony, plus students celebrated at the Melbourne Campus for drive-up photo opportunities. The EFSC Foundation ran a Facebook campaign for students to share their photos and videos. Those that shared received an alumni t-shirt. “Graduates refused to let COVID-19 pandemic dampen their spirits. It was an amazing and joyful display of pride in their accomplishments”, said college President, Dr. Jim Richey. USE YOUR CREATIVITY A former NASA scientist invented the Super Soaker.
