She Graduated!


It was a great celebration in Oxford this weekend despite a bit of ridiculously cold, windy weather. First, friday night we celebrated at a great restaurant in Cincinnati with Grace's and Jamie's family. Saturday, was "whole school" graduation followed by a catered BBQ that all the housemates organized for family members. The weather did not cooperate, unfortunately, leaving 30+ people crammed into less than ideal conditions inside the girl's house. Sunday was beautiful, and we attended the business school's very impressive ceremony. Each graduate of the business school left with a share of stock in the Danaher Company (today, worth about $80) given to them by the speaker, Mitchell Rales, a Miami Alum and founder of the corporation. His request to the students was to hold on to the stock for at least 15 years. His message was all about focusing on the long term.
