A Message from President Dr. Tom Leitzel to the Class of 2013:  

Commencement represents the ultimate culmination of efforts. It's the pinnacle moment in the life of an academic enterprise. To our graduates, we wish you a most heartfelt congratulations. 

Our students bring life to our institution. As employees organized to serve them, commencement becomes a very sacred time, and we relive precious moments as we reflect fondly on our own graduation events. We also intentionally preserve culture and honor tradition through planned celebrations of accomplishment. Students and guests alike who participate in the formal commencement  exercises 
will see symbols, and those symbols have deep meaning. For example, symbolism occurs in the colors of the faculty's commencement hoods, which convey academic programs and disciplines. Symbolism shows in the bands that surround our college mace, which represents the four counties we serve. Tradition is proudly reflected in our own college seal as we honor our founding dating back to 1868.
  

Consider this charge: Let your symbol be honorable. Let it emanate from your heart, a heart dedicated to serve others through the knowledge you acquired. Become benevolent and reflect proudly on your dedicated TCL faculty who shaped your mind and challenge you to seek truthful ways of acquiring  knowledge. We salute all graduates and wish you Godspeed!
