This is not a happy result – but it’s a vindication of the Rule Of Law.

Some may celebrate, but to me it’s sad that a former President of the USA has been so UNANIMOUSLY convicted of Criminal Charges.

I heard an add on my local NPR station this week, and they were teasing a special they are doing on colleges’ “Class(es) of 2024.”

I had never put the two together, but a college senior graduating this year would have entered college in August/September 2020 – just as COVID was ravaging the US.

And they are graduating during a time of campus unrest unseen for decades – the bitter protests against the Israeli – Palestinian State conflict. There’s a lot to digest there, but I’m looking of things from a different viewpoint.

• Did some of those Class of 2024 students have a high school graduation or did COVID make it a virtual (or non-existent) event?
• Are some of those students now at universities that have cancelled commencement?

That just never occurred to me – I just don’t “hang” with any 24 years olds.

Kinda sucks for them – I personally wouldn’t have minded not having a ceremony, but that’s me. Others would (will) miss it, as will their families.

No great message – just something that is out there.
