On June 15, over 40,000 Huskies, friends, and family members crowded CenturyLink Field to take part in the pomp and circumstance of the graduation of the Class of 2013.
The stadium was a sea of academic robes, carefully — and some not so carefully — decorated caps, and the graduates’ hopes and dreams.
Over 5,000 students, dressed in everything from their best clothes to jeans and tee-shirts, made the walk across the stage to the next chapter of their lives. (end)
