From the President Today we celebrate the completion of degrees, the achievement of long awaited goals and the culmination of years of hard work and sacrifice. It is a joyous occasion, not only for our graduates, but also for their families and friends who have supported them throughout their educational journey. It is also a celebration for the excellent faculty, staff, and administration of the college who have worked to provide the highest quality education, support services, and encouragement that has enabled our graduates to succeed and to reach their full potential.

Student success is central to the mission and goals of Yakima Valley College. Watching our graduates walk across the platform to receive their degrees revitalizes and inspires us all to continue in our efforts to provide quality education to the citizens of the Yakima Valley.

Our 2019 graduating class, like thousands of previous YVC graduates, will go on to be lifelong achievers and leaders in our community and throughout the world. We are confident that this President Linda Kaminski, Ed.D. Board of Trustees Robert Ozuna, Chair Patrick Baldoz Sara Cate, M.D. Rosalinda Mendoza Neil McClure

graduating class has the self-determination, skills, and abilities to continue to succeed in their future education endeavors and in their chosen careers. Learning is a lifelong process and most education takes place outside the classroom. I encourage each graduate to embrace each new experience and every challenge as an opportunity to further their education and to succeed. Believe in yourself and, whatever path you choose to follow, make a difference.

Congratulations, YVC graduates!

Linda Kaminski, Ed.D. Yakima Valley College

Welcome

Founded in 1928, Yakima Valley College is one of the largest providers of postsecondary education in the south central region of Washington State and has a long tradition of quality teaching and a strong commitment to student success. YVC offers a comprehensive curriculum for bachelor of applied science degrees, transfer degrees, professional and technical degrees, and basic skills instruction. As one of the 38 community and technical colleges in the state of Washington, YVC serves Kittitas, Yakima, and Klickitat counties with campuses in Yakima and Grandview and learning centers in Ellensburg, Sunnyside, and Toppenish.

Today’s ceremony will include graduates from YVC’s bachelor of applied science degree and associate degree programs as well as high school students who are earning both their associates degree and high school diploma at the same time. YVC’s ceremony also includes students who have completed their certificate of achievement in one of our many areas of study. Thank you for joining us to celebrate our graduates.

Academic Procession

The commencement ceremony begins with the academic procession, a tradition dating back to the twelfth century.

The processional order begins with the platform party (board, president, vice presidents and speakers), followed by the deans, faculty, the bachelor degree graduates and the associate degree graduates, and certificate students.

The graduates will be primarily in two colors of gowns. The bachelor degree graduates wear black, and the associate degree and certificate of achievement graduates wear maroon. Running Start students who are graduating with their associate degree and high school diploma can choose to wear YVC’s maroon or their high school gown. The college’s administration and faculty wear gowns indicative of their academic degrees embellished with various colors depending on their discipline or area of study.

In addition to the cap and gowns, you will also see some students wearing cords, medallions, and stoles which recognize outstanding academic achievement. The cords recognize honors (GPA of 3.40 to 3.84) and high honors (GPA of 3.85 or higher). Honor cords are either white (certificates) or maroon and gold (associate or bachelor’s degrees).

High honor cords are either double white (certificates) or double gold (associate or bachelor’s degrees). Phi Theta Kappa members are wearing gold stoles and student government officers are wearing white stoles. Finally, two students selected for the All-Washington Academic Team are wearing their medallions.

Announcements

We ask that our guests silence cell phones. For safety reasons, keep all walkways clear. When the graduates enter the stadium, please stand during the processional. Photographs may be taken, but audience members are not allowed on the stage. There will be opportunities for photographs following the ceremony. Please stand for the recessional, then remain in your seat until all graduates have exited. If you have questions, please speak with an usher.

Commencement Speaker Mr. Ricardo Garcia

Yakima Valley College is honored to have Mr. Ricardo Garcia speak at the 90th Commencement Ceremony.

Mr. Garcia was born and raised in San Diego, Texas. In 1959, soon after graduating high school, he enlisted with the U.S. Army and was assigned to a unit in South Korea. Upon completion of this assignment, he was transferred to Fort Lewis, and found himself training at the Yakima Firing Center. After completion of his army tour, he attended YVC and CWU, graduating with a BA in social work. Mr. Garcia became an activist and advocate on behalf of the valley’s farm workers. Social change and social justice was the cry of the activists during the Chicano farm worker movement. Activists were successful in establishing a chain of community-based organizations, which addressed issues of health care access, pre-school education, housing and economic development.

Mr. Garcia was one of the four founders of radio station KDNA 91.9, the Spanish-language outlet that took to the airwaves in 1979.

Mr. Garcia’s work as a social worker spans more than 40 years. He was the first executive secretary for the commission on Mexican American Affairs, served as the executive director of Northwest Rural Opportunities, and also was the general manager of Radio KDNA-FM. He retired in 2008.

Student Commencement Speaker Ms. Anita Valdovinos

Yakima Valley College is pleased to have graduate Anita Valdovinos deliver the student commencement speech for the class of 2019.

Valdovinos has completed her associate in arts transfer degree.

Ms. Valdovinos was born in Yakima, Washington. The eldest of eight siblings born to immigrant parents, Ms. Valdovinos was always encouraged to pursue education. When her parents’ divorced, she moved with her father to Texas. When she was just 15 years old, her father was deported and she decided to stay in the United States. She graduated from high school in the top 10% of her class, however, her dreams of pursuing a college degree were put on hold when she learned that she was pregnant with her first child. Ms. Valdovinos decided to return to the Yakima Valley to be near family and work. Wanting to pursue her dreams for a better education and life for her family, she enrolled at YVC in 2015.

“YVC offered me resources and a support system that helped my husband and I to go to college,” she says. I have poured myself into this school and have truly come to love this college. During my time at YVC I had my third child, went through homelessness and even a house fire, but in the midst of chaos what stayed consistent was Yakima Valley College. It has prepared me for the next stage of my life as I continue my education at Central Washington University to study Zoology.”

“I wanted to make a difference in my career so I turned my attention to our Hispanic community,” he says. “I wanted to provide the news and information people need to achieve the goals they have for their families. That’s why it was so important for us to partner with YVC. From Orgullo Comunitario on KUNW to the bi-weekly stories on KIMA we showcase what the best and brightest are doing, and how a strong college education propels them to success.”
