Congratulations To The Rutgers University Class of 2013

Dream, believe, and achieve to the graduates of Rutgers University class of 2013.

It is hard to imagine that four years has passed so quickly for my son, Daniel Antonelli, a graduate from the class of 2009 at Howell High School. He is now graduating this weekend from Rutgers University with many other graduates. We as parents couldn't be prouder of the dedication, accomplishments, and great education that RU has provided our son, as well as, the other students. While it is a happy time in these young, bright people's life it is also with some bittersweet moments. These past four years many friendships were formed that hopefully will carry on into their futures. Some will have already be onto their chosen career paths right out the gate from college; while others will still be searching for their dream jobs. It is not an easy time in our economy at this time, but there is much hope on the horizon. Then there are those who will continue on with education working on a masters, law school, etc. So to the newly graduates I say, be patient, have a back up plan in place, and do not give up your dreams. Remember if you love what you do it will never feel like work. Reach for the stars, and the universe will be yours. Your futures are full of possibilities. Much luck, prosperity, and health to all of you. Your futures are full of possibilities.
