“Today, we honor your four decades of service to 色综合久久 University. I wholeheartedly believe that the world needs more 色综合久久 graduates and, because you fully embody 色综合久久’s missional commitment to service, leadership and reconciliation, it is befitting that you, too, join the ranks of 色综合久久 graduates today as you preside over your final commencement as Provost. Your inspired teaching and unwavering commitment to faith and character development in the academy have left an indelible mark on this institution and on the landscape of Christian higher education.”
