Amanda Valdes Graduates from the University of Delaware

2013 Jul 2

On a morning marked by wispy clouds in a blue sky, more than 21,000 people -- graduates and their families and friends, including Amanda Valdes -- braved gale force winds to celebrate the University of Delaware's 164th Commencement, held Saturday, May 25, at Delaware Stadium.

Valdes is from Lumber Bridge, NC.

Citing the talent, ambition, passion and commitment that made the day possible, University President Patrick Harker congratulated the Class of 2013 on what he described as "a great day to graduate."
