  • ESTERN AROLINA RSITY OFFICE OF THE CHANCELLOR (704) 227-7100 Dear Graduating Student: On this commencement day you join millions of your peers across this land in the attainment of a major objective--the receiving of a university academic degree. This accomplishment signals the end of years of formal education, but it also heralds the beginning of a new era of your life. With the completion of your degree requirements, and with your graduation, you can never be the same person who began your academic studies years ago. You will now assume a new role of self-sufficiency, of independence, and of responsibility for which you have been preparing. Many who will work with you will expect you to think with precision, to communicate with accuracy, to perform your work with a high level of competence, to function well as a member of a team or staff within your organization, and to be considerate of others who will rely upon you for assistance. Your studies have given you the basic preparation for leadership. It is now your time to apply the knowledge and skills you have developed, along with an attitude that is constructive, in such a manner that you will perceive the problems which confront you as opportunities for you to practice the competencies you have acquired. You have my congratulations for your educational accomplishments and my best wishes for success in the years ahead. Sincerely yours, CULLOWHEE, NORTH CAROLINA 28723 Western Carolina University is one of the sixteen senior institutions of The University of North Carolina and an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer.
