A Letter from your ASCSU President

GRADUATES a message to FROM ASCSU PRESIDENT CHRISTIAN DYKSON

Dear Graduating Rams, Congratulations on finishing your journey at Colorado State University! You have endured to this moment and I am so incredibly proud to call you fellow Rams, and I trust that your pathway ahead will bring immense opportunities. Whether it took you three years, or six, your degree and this accomplishment will set you apart. As a changemaker, systems thinker, and problem solver, you will ensure that we create a better world for future generations. I am deeply inspired by your ability to endure and remain hopeful throughout the pandemic, and I trust that the resilience you have demonstrated will equip you as a cherished asset in whatever field you pursue. By finalizing your degree, you have not only proven your resolve and endurance, but you have affirmed your potential as an agent of change in our nation and world. May your opportunities for impact be abundant, and may the next chapter bring success, fortune, contentment, and purpose. You are now entering a network of alumni that is changing the world. Changemakers like Polly Baca, a 1962 graduate of CSU, transformational policymaker, and renowned leader within Colorado. Or Leslie Jones, nationally-renowned comedian, SNL star, and one of TIME magazine’s 100 most influential people. Or John Mosley, 25year veteran and member of the famous Tuskegee Airmen during World War II. Their journeys included Colorado State University, and their impact is globally recognized. In whatever field you pursue, remember that your story and impact will be known by many. As you pursue the next chapter in your story, I wish you well. May your dream careers become reality, and may you always remember that you are loved and valued. And may you continue to thrive in all that you do. Although your time at CSU has elapsed, may you never forget that we are aeternum arietes, eternally Rams. Yours in service, Christian Dykson Student Body President
