Well, what an experience. Friday was filled with ceremony, emotional moments, love and family. I've attached photos of GT's Commencement and Hooding Ceremonies for PhDs. To my surprise, my one-in-a-million husband posted the most moving statement (along with the photos) on Facebook (can't believe he made this public!):
"Today has been a great day. I’m proud to announce that my wife, Diane Alleva Cáceres, officially received her PhD in International Affairs, Science, and Technology from Georgia Tech. In doing so she became the first woman to receive this degree from Georgia Tech. Today’s ceremony represents the culmination of seven years of study, research, travel, and (much) writing in addition to running her consulting firm in international business and raising our wonderful daughter.
It’s hard to express how wonderful it is to see someone you love achieve one of their lifelong dreams. Here at home, we all feel like we’re on cloud nine as we share Diane’s joy. Diane has been a true inspiration to me, our daughter, as well as our extended family and our friends. I couldn’t be prouder. Congratulations, Diane!"
Thanks to you wonderful women of the Bigger Game group for helping me through this experience. Onward and upward!
