We don’t cover much in the way of pomp and circumstance in this paper, but we felt that this week, we could all use a reminder of the good and the progress there is in this world.
Join us in celebrating the 724 students who graduated from Cuesta College; 180 of them walked in the 49th annual commencement ceremony this past May 23.
The students, from 17 to 67 years old, earned a collective 900 degrees.
