TNCC graduation: a few pols and a nephew

I attended the graduation of Thomas Nelson Community College this past Saturday morning. The ceremony was held at 10am (!) at the Hampton Convocation Center. Sitting at the rear of the auditorium near the center aisle, I was surprised to see several of our elected representatives in the procession. One sure way to get the politicians out bright and early on a Saturday morning: give them an award 😉

Newport News Mayor-Elect McKinley Price was also there – but that’s because he’s on the TNCC board. In all fairness, at least one politician in attendance didn’t receive an award: Sen. John Miller.

But that wasn’t why I was there. I was there because my nephew graduated. It’s been a long road for him, but he did it and we are all so very proud of him!

I apologize for the video. I’m working with a new camera.
