My Sincere Thanks to You
In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, the power of gratitude is often overlooked. I am always delighted when Thanksgiving approaches because this holiday affords me the opportunity to express my sincere appreciation and to recognize those who make such a tremendous difference in our community and beyond.
With this in mind, I would like to say "thank you" to the entire staff, faculty and trustees of Miami Dade College for your tireless dedication and innovation, for inspiring and motivating our students to be the best they can be, for arming MDC's students with the knowledge and tools to make their mark on society.
I'd also like to thank the STUDENTS of Miami Dade College for your devotion to learning, for bringing your fresh insight and enthusiasm into our classrooms, and for challenging us to deliver the greatest in academic excellence. You are truly at the heart of this institution's continuous growth and success.
On a day when we can share in giving thanks to one another, I wish you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving.
Thank you.
Eduardo
