Boonie graduates today with a Beloit College Bachelor’s degree in Creative Writing. She completes her college years with honors and having won the English Department’s short story award. I loved to watch her face light up whenever she talked about working as a TA for a Magazine Feature Writing class and as a tutor in the Writing Center. She’s already freelance writing, including book reviews and interviews with authors, and she plans to get her Master’s degree: Geneva wants to teach.
Geneva has already taught us lessons about perseverance, for she has faced all sorts of obstacles on her way to reaching today’s milestone. Her path wasn’t easy, so I am especially impressed with her effort. Our former Davis High Grad has become a lovely and remarkable young woman who maintains her compassionate heart and sensitive manner. It is a joy to watch her thrive.
Congratulations, Boon — We’re so proud of you and can’t wait to see what you do next! 👩🏼🎓
