71 Student-Athletes, Cheerleaders and Staff Graduate during the 2014-15 Academic Year
COLLEGE PARK, Md. – Seventy-one current and former student-athletes and cheerleaders were among Bowie State University graduates who received degrees during the 2014-15 academic year. Forty-one of those mentioned were awarded degrees during the 2015 Spring Commencement on Saturday, May 23rd at the University of Maryland’s Xfinity Center, while the other 30 earned degrees during the 2014 Winter Commencement.
Congressman Elijah E. Cummings delivered the commencement address to the graduates. Cummings (D-Md.) challenged nearly 700 Bowie State University graduates urging them to avoid becoming satisfied with earning a degree and getting a good job, but to also consider the “plight of our people” as they pursue their career paths. “I was the one who was put in special ed as a child, to be there for six years, to be thrown away. I’m the one. I’m the one who they said would never be able to read or write. I’m the one. I’m the one who they said would never go to college ... We cannot throw any of our children away.”
“There is no greater event in the collegiate environment than commencement. Having attended my first Bowie State University commencement I was profoundly impressed by the strong sense of spirit and accomplishment that filled the arena. Our featured speaker, the Honorable Elijah Cummings, rendered a rousing and passionate message that resonated with a strong sense of purpose with the audience, especially the graduates. I am extremely proud of the 64 student-athletes, cheerleaders, managers and student trainer that completed their degrees and walked proudly across the stage to accept their degrees. As Congressman Cummings stated ‘you started something and you finished’. You finished Bulldog strong. Good luck and continued success in all of your futures endeavors”, said Athletic Director Clyde Doughty, Jr.
