Congratulations are in order to our sister, Evangeline Nez. She successfully defended her dissertation on April 30, then graduated from the University of New Mexico, receiving her Ph.D. on May 12. The area of study for Vangee’s degree was in Native American languages.
On Facebook, the newly minted doctor had this to say:
“Yes, I achieved my dream--I earned my PhD. It was a personal endeavor and a change of career in my early 40s. It's been awesome, yet, at the same time it was a challenging experience. I did it and I'm proud. Proud that I did it and also to say that it can be done. Don't let anyone stop you or tell you can't do it. We all have a choice...to be the best we can. We don't have to accept what is at hand, we can observe it and decide what you can change. The world is at our hands. We can give back in many ways too. Okie dokie smokie---(my dad used to say)! Everyday is a special day and I'm thankful for it. May your path be blessed.”
Hoo Yah Vangee! We are proud of you!
