 It's graduation day. We've been looking forward to this for two years now since we started and we're here. And I'm thankful. My name is Maria Pozo and I am studying paralegal studies at Western Technical College. Everyone was welcoming at Western Tech when I went into the Welcome Center. Everyone was happy. They seemed like they just wanted me to come to the school. My name is Nicholas Iverson and I'm graduating from Western in the Wood Techniques program. The way they have the program set up, it really touches all the bases. I had some expectations of what I wanted to learn and coming to the program, they had met and exceeded all things I had hoped to try to get out of it. It was really incredible. I'm going to have my family and kids here and to be able to show them the hard work that I put in and that's paying off. My mom's been crying since seven o'clock this morning. So it's been an emotional morning for me and her and the whole family. I would definitely recommend Western Tech to anybody. It's an amazing school. The teachers at Western Tech are amazing. Thank you. They want to get to know you. They want to make sure that you succeed. I just signed up for Viterbo so I want to get my bachelor's degree in criminal justice. And then I hope to attend UW Madison and become an attorney. I'll be starting in the field right away. And I re-enrolled at Western to continue schooling while I work. I'll be taking the supervisory management position, which will work around me while I'm going and working full-time. So I'm pretty excited about that. I knew that going and getting a college education would make the world of a difference with that. Coming to Western is the best choice I've ever made.
