"We are extremely proud of our graduates," said SDSU President Elliot Hirshman, who will preside over his first commencement ceremonies at SDSU. "We send our heartiest congratulations to our graduates, their families and our faculty and staff members who supported and mentored this year's graduates. We know these graduates will continue our tradition of providing leadership to our region, our nation and our world."
Lindsey Goulet came to SDSU through the Compact for Success program, a partnership between SDSU and the Sweetwater Union High School District designed to offer students guaranteed admission to the university. Inspired to create a positive change in her community, Goulet decided the best way to carry on the legacy of empowerment given to her by her high school teachers was to become an educator herself. Goulet will earn her bachelor’s degree in Social Science and plans to pursue a teaching credential in high social science and physics. Ultimately, she hopes to find a teaching position in the South County so she can give back to the community that inspired her.
