Congratulations. But why is this a special story? There are tons of Bahamians graduating from college with some amazing stories- Since you are a 'newspaper' maybe do a feature- a series of stories on young and not so young Bahamians doing big things. What about the Bahamian valedictorian at Morehouse? The priest from Yale? The young man who graduated from COB and broke out in a spirit dance? Come on Tribune if she is connected to the paper- say so- and then do better.
