Graduation took a bit of a miracle — and a lot of determination — for Ed Horn

Nick Mueller taking his Rowan degree to American U and into anti-terrorism field
Nick Mueller has that look: 6’3”, imposing, solid, calm. The kind of guy who might be a State Police trooper or an Air Force colonel. The kind of guy who believes in service. The kind of guy who puts his hand over his heart when the Star-Spangled Banner plays.

From Moldova to Pitman, Rowan grad Tanya Harmer spans many worlds
Arriving in America, Tanya Harmer did not speak a word of English. But on May 13, the Pitman resident will graduate from Rowan University with a bachelor’s degree in English and elementary education, minor in music and certification in reading. 

Engineering student Kelli Martino finds a Deere job waiting across country
When Kelli Martino graduates, she’ll have a lot to celebrate. The Rowan University senior mechanical engineering major from Dennisville is an accomplished student, a service leader and a former General Mills intern at the Vineland Progresso plant. She also has a job lined up after graduation – halfway across the country.

Despite loss, Lauren Thompson anticipates commencement and the future
Lauren Thompson, on the surface, seems a lot like the thousand or so other students preparing to graduate from Rowan University in May: young, smart, energetic, eager, dreaming of the future.
