Class of 2021 Celebrates Graduation and Being Together Again
Earlier this month, we celebrated members of the Class of 2021 and their accomplishments at CMC’s in-person graduation ceremony! 245 graduates gathered on Parents Field—and several more virtually via Zoom—to celebrate their mutual milestone. The graduates soaked up the poignant remarks and musical performance from keynote speaker and renowned violinist Vijay Gupta and reflections from President Hiram E. Chodosh. For 2020 and 2021 graduates, we are looking forward to seeing all of you again at our full in-person celebration over the weekend of June 3-5, 2022.
