Gavilan President Dr. Steven M. Kinsella emceed the evening, introducing speakers and recipients of awards while lauding the student body in between lighthearted jests.
“Having a college degree is the best chance you have to advance to a higher rung on the social ladder,” Kinsella said. “It also tells the world you are skilled in a profession. And some people may think you’re smart … except your in-laws.”
