Diplomats shine brighter.
In their homes, in their communities & in the world.
The moment you stepped on campus, something extraordinary happened.
You became part of all F&M is and will be.
You brought your intellect, your creativity & your character.
As we step into another year,
may you continue to carry that influence forward鈥�
inspiring others and creating transformative ripples
that reach far and wide.
That鈥檚 the Diplomat way.
Happy New Year!
