A word by Kanti Mokgohloa
Standing at the edge of graduation feels surreal. It’s not just a ceremony; it’s a moment that bridges who one has been and who one is becoming. For the Gradlincers, it’s also about navigating those in-between moments, where the past and the future collide.
Graduation is more than the culmination of hard work; it’s a farewell to a life you knew so intimately. The friends who turned into family, the mentors and lecturers who saw potential in you even when you doubted yourself, and the campus that felt like home—all these become cherished memories you carry forward. They have shaped your becoming, and it’s important to embrace them with gratitude and pride.
As you step forward, the future is unwritten.The blank canvas of your future may seem daunting, but it’s brimming with possibility. It’s already waiting for your unique touch, so ensure you have a blast putting your colors onto it. You’ve earned the tools to create something extraordinary. The lessons you’ve learned, not just from books but from life, will be your guide.
To those in the in-between, cherish the journey as much as the destination. Here’s to us—the dreamers, the doers, the believers, the Gradlincers. The best chapters are yet to be written.
