Topic: News from Bogie Bowles

Congratulations to Bogie are in order!! He posted this on facebook:

"May 9, 2015. Graduation Day. I cannot believe this day is here. This has been an amazing year in such a beautiful place. Chapel Hill will always be home for me in one form or another. Many, many thanks to my family, friends, colleagues, mentors, etc who have guided me through this journey. If you think God doesn't have a sense of humor, ask me about my start at UNC 25 years ago, and then I'll tell you about the opportunity to return here and make it right with a Master's degree. So today I celebrate all of this, and all of these wonderful people in my life who have helped make this happen. I am looking forward to a life filled with family, friends, service, music, and love. I dedicate this MSW degree to the man who gave me my passion for Carolina, and left an incredible legacy of service, my Grandfather, Hargrove "Skipper" Bowles, Jr."

Congratulations, Bogie!  Sometimes the path meanders a bit (I call it taking the scenic route) but eventually we get where we want to be.  Happy life!
