I burst out crying watching this! Not sure why. I shared her joy and triumph so totally. I remembered graduating at the very same university in the early 90s. It was not easy. It never is, but it was so worth it. I remember I would imagine receiving my certificate with the all-important phrase at the end: Degree Completed. Then I would keep going when modules were showing me flames. After my last exam, I remember I was so relieved, I got to Alan Taylor Res and jumped into the swimming pool fully clothed, just for the hell of it. Back in 1989, we weren't even allowed to stay at the university residences on the university premises. We stayed at an old army barracks in Wentworth, a coloured area far away. God is great!
