ECC graduates reflect on accomplishments, share advice
College can be a difficult journey, but the rewards are worth it.
That's the take-away from essays written by six Elgin Community College graduates who took part in the spring commencement ceremonies on May 20.
These students represent just a fraction of the 389 degrees and certificates that were awarded that day, but their stories - each with its own challenges and rewards - can be a source of inspiration to all.
Elgin Community College held two graduation ceremonies May 20 for a total of 389 graduates. This was at the morning ceremony.
