What a Day!!!

What a day! Saturday, May 14 - the CNS Senior Recognition Ceremony in the Mullins Center. Over 1000 CNS graduates joined in the celebration. A UMass Jazz Octet provided the music - the group was just fantastic. After brief welcoming remarks from Dean Goodwin, students in each department were called to the platform. Departments were introduced by a student speaker and then individual student names were announced as their smiling faces were projected on jumbo screens. Each student received a UMass medallion. The event ended with students throwing off their mortar boards and putting on CNS baseball caps that were given out as gifts. As graduates left the arena the jazz band played "I Feel Good". It was a great day!! To see photos, visit Pictures of 2011 Senior Celebration.
