Michigan Technological University here in Houghton, held their Mid-Year Commencement this past Saturday and Bob Gilreath was on hand to snap some photos. Bob said this was the 7th MTU graduation he has attended and this time it was for his daughter's friend, Cory, who you can see in the last two photos.
There were 300 students who received their diplomas this weekend and are now considered Michigan Tech Alumni. I bet when they started down the college path, they thought this day would never come, but here it is and they're no longer students, but young men and women ready to go out into the workforce.
Two of the graduates are also Lake Linden-Hubbell alumni (there may be others, but these two I know for sure. Brett Gervais third photo and Cory Jokela last two photos), both from Lake Linden. Congratulations to all the graduates, but especially to our Lakes hometown boys, Brett and Cory. Good job, guys!
