Commencement at Colorado Mountain College is always a special day, but this year was different.
And, not different because students wore masks or because they had to physically distance. Different, in that commencement was not just a fleeting moment of joy. It was a triumphant celebration for hundreds of students who overcame hardship after hardship to get to this point.
Students, who in the face of a devastating pandemic, ruthless wildfires and divisive civil unrest, had the courage to push forward and make this one of the largest graduating classes in the history of Colorado Mountain College.

âI think a lot of that is because those kids really need hands-on learning from teachers, especially in person, and we can provide that.â
