  <title><![CDATA[Finding Their Place and Their People Makes All the Difference for These Graduates]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Over the course of three Commencement ceremonies Dec. 16 and 17, the College of Engineering will send 1,400 new graduates out into the world. They&rsquo;ll carry the Georgia Tech banner with them wherever they go, using their knowledge and experiences to help solve society&rsquo;s most pressing problems.</p>

<p>We asked a few Clark Scholars and students who&rsquo;ve been involved in programs in the <a href="https://ceed.gatech.edu/">Center for Engineering Education and Diversity (CEED)</a> to share a piece of their story ahead of graduation.</p>

<p>They talked about how they&rsquo;ve grown in their years at Georgia Tech and what they&rsquo;re taking with them as they move on to new chapters in their lives.</p>

<p><a href="https://coe.gatech.edu/news/2022/12/finding-their-place-and-their-people-makes-all-difference-these-graduates"><strong>Read their reflections on the College of Engineering website.</strong></a></p>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
