THE CLASS OF 2020
E
very year, The Bridge highlights 8-10 seniors in its Commencement coverage. However, because 2020 is a year like no other, we decided all members of the Class of 2020 deserved a shout out. We asked Jake Miaczynski ’20, a writer for The Bridge during his entire college career, to sum up the senior pandemic experience:
Bryton James Baum Biology
Justin Mark Blest Engineering
Hannah Marie Beairsto English
Bryson Lee Boettger Engineering
Grace Louise Beattie History
Erika Lynne Boice Economic Development
Scott Michael Beaver Philosophy
Megan Elizabeth Bomba Communication
“ Instead of attending Commencement from Starry Field, we watched a live-streamed Baccalaureate ceremony from our living rooms. Despite the uncertainty and loss of our last semester on campus, we came together — virtually, of course — and finished the race marked out for us. With perseverance and humility, we press on, stand with confidence and say, ‘God is faithful, and we’re still here.’ ”
Shakara Monic Alcorn-Beckem Dance
Kyra Adrianna Bond Communication
Sarah Grace Becker Spanish English
Grace Mary Boscolo Music Education with K-12 Teaching Certification
Hannah Faith Beecher Theatre
Hayley Erin Bowser Music Education with K-12 Teaching Certification
Class of 2020, you are indeed still here and still in our hearts. We shine the spotlight on all of you for this issue of The Bridge. UNDERGRADUATE CLASS OF 2020
