Time to shine for QCC graduates at commencement ceremony in DCU Center

WORCESTER — Friday afternoon was Quinsigamond Community College graduates' time to shine as the college held its 59th commencement ceremony at the DCU Center.

Making it to graduation day holds special meaning to Quinsigamond Community College students, who include students from less financially secure backgrounds, older students and students who attend classes while working a full-time job or raising a family.

"Community college graduations hold a special significance," QCC President Luis G. Pedraja said. "For they represent the triumph of perseverance over adversity."

The resilience of the graduating students was a common theme Friday.

As the student speaker, Student Government Association Chair Dignamar Figueroa talked about her own journey to graduating as a part-time student while being a mother of two girls who became homeless right before starting at QCC.

Words of wisdom: Commencement dates and speakers, Central Mass. colleges

"I felt embarrassed about my situation, which made it hard to be vulnerable, speak up and ask for help," Figueroa said. "But I'm working on that and the good news is that I did not let the opportunity to go to college pass me by."

Figueroa said she started at QCC as an introvert who did not have much experience working with others. She needed to grow in her time at the college and get used to being back in school after 10 years.

While she was able to get into a shelter by her third semester of college, Figueroa said she had "mentally crashed" and needed to work on her well-being, saying QCC's resources helped her.

"The reason I opened up about myself today is to remind you that, just like me, no matter where you come from or what you went through you made it to this moment," Figueroa said.

Opeyemi Odewale, a professor of biology, recalled experiencing a "beautiful phenomenon" in QCC classrooms, students saying "thank you" as they left class. Odewale said he finally understood why students say "thank you" after a fellow faculty member shared a quote: "Teaching is the profession that makes other professions possible."

"To witness a student convey such a simple common courtesy while either coming from work, or going to work, or dealing with the challenges of life is simply a beautiful phenomenon," Odewale said.

Odewale said humans have a common call of service to each other, saying many children and young adults would tell you they want to work in jobs that can help others.

"Class of 2024, I might not know your individual purpose, but I do know this. I am confident in this, that you are important," Odewale said. "Not because you are special, but because your purpose is tied to service to others."

While the 1,244 members of the QCC graduating class took different paths to eventually get to the graduation stage Friday, Suzanne Graham Anderson, president of the Alumni Association, said the most important thing is that they were able to reach it.

"It doesn't matter the length of time that you took. It doesn't matter if it took you 10 years, two years or 30 years. What matters is that you did it," Anderson said.

Friday's commencement address was given by state Sen. Robyn Kennedy, who represents much of Worcester in the 1st Worcester District and previously served as chief operating officer of the YWCA of Central Massachusetts.

Kennedy said QCC graduates understands both the promise and hurdles of the world better than anyone.

"This moment, your graduation, signifies your capacity to transcend boundaries, to pursue excellence and to reshape not just your destiny, but the destiny of those around you," Kennedy said.

In any space, Kennedy said she has always been troubled when people who have never experienced real hurdles will often repeat the phrase "good enough."

"What defines your character is the notion that 'good enough' is simply not good enough," Kennedy said. "Now more than ever our world demands of us that we are better than good enough. Graduates of QCC, I am here to confirm that what we honor here today is your demonstration to that ideal."

The graduates face a world that allows for more instant connections than ever before and more dense with information, but is also one that is more divided and poorer in understanding, Kennedy said.

She said the potential the graduates have to impact the world for their communities and loved ones is even greater than the real challenges they have ahead.
