Thank You,
Congratulations on graduating another class of AEMers! I feel so proud and privileged to have been a part of that group. Every moment I spent doing something with the department- be it learning in the classroom, traveling to other parts of the country or the world for the FIMP, reviewing projects for student groups, or just hanging out to chat for a little bit- is a moment that I will treasure for years to come. I will, of course, be back to visit and keep everybody updated on where I am, career-wise (still waiting!) and life-wise.
I am not sure how often us students tell you so, but we really appreciate you all so much for the support that we receive from you. It has been absolutely fantastic learning alongside such intelligent and motivated colleagues who also care about each other. I do not believe that such a collaborative atmosphere would have been possible without the fostering of the department's faculty and staff, so all the more kudos to you.
Thank you for the memories, the life lessons, and the snacks and candies that helped me last through the day.
Love,
Dana Lin :)
