A letter from UNC President Kay Norton:UNC graduates make a difference
Dear UNC Graduates,
Commencement marks a milestone in both your journey of lifelong learning DQG�WKH�OLIH�RI�WKH�8QLYHUVLW\�RI�1RUWKHUQ�&RORUDGR��$V�\RX�UHÁHFW�RQ�\RXU�DF-complishments and look forward to new opportunities, know that you are part of more than a century’s tradition on our campus.
In 1890, when civic leaders, educators and citizens from Greeley and across WKH�6WDWH�RI�&RORUDGR�JDWKHUHG�WR�FHOHEUDWH�OD\LQJ�WKH�FRUQHUVWRQH�RI�RXU�ÀUVW�building, they spoke of universal education as the foundation for our future. Governor Job A. Cooper told the crowd, “It is the enlightened conscience and educated intelligence of the many that will ultimately crowd back all corruption and anarchy and harmonize contending factions and dissipate the dangers that threaten our country. Upon this foundation stone laid today will rise an institu-tion to prepare leaders in this great work.”
As graduates, you will leave here today to become the leaders envisioned by our founders. Earning a UNC degree is about more than books and knowledge. It is about nurturing the mind and the heart, seeing potential in the unknown, and preparing to give back to society. If you look at the array of professions — the lives — we prepare students for, many are public service oriented. UNC graduates don’t just make money; they make a difference.
As you continue your journey of lifelong learning, you can be proud to be part of a distinguished group of UNC alumni who are making a difference across the country and around the world.
Best Regards,Kay Norton

Take advantage of summer while you still can, undergraduatesThoughts from the editorial staff of The MirrorReflects

So personally, this has been
the year of my sophomore slumps.
And yes, I may or may not be go-
ing through a bad break-up right
now, so of course all I can see is
the apparent negativity in my life.
Recently, thoughts like “I’m
going to be alone forever, what
is wrong with me?” or “Are you
kidding me, I have to create an
advertising campaign and take
WKUHH� ÀQDOV� ZKLOH� GHDOLQJ� ZLWK�this crap?” are questions that of-
ten cross my mind. And I know
there are students out there strug-
gling with personal problems
way larger than my own.
But—for those who know me
at all—optimism might as well be
my middle name, and summer is
my silver lining.
I actually had a wonderful year
at UNC, when I look past all the
bad. I’ve accomplished so much
more than I would have thought.
I’ve taken classes that interest me
and have excelled at a majority of
them. I joined a bunch of new on-
campus clubs. I was accepted into
the journalism and mass commu-
nications program, and I became
the news editor here at The Mir-
ror.
I’ve taken chances, put my
trust into people and made new
friends. I’ve learned how to shoot
a gun, make myself a decent din-
ner, swing dance and all about
the “country life” (I’m from Las
Vegas).
I’m sure a good majority of
the student population has made
some unforgettable memories
this year, as well. We are young.
�)RU�VRPH�RI�WKH�ÀUVW�WLPHV�LQ�our lives, we are independent and
we have the ability to take our
lives any direction we choose.
Though I’ve recently had to
PDNH� SUHWW\� VLJQLÀFDQW� FKDQJHV�to where I plan on taking my life,
I know this summer will only
bring more options. And for those
of you who have no idea what the
hell you’re doing with your life,
and where you want to go or what
you want to do, we’re all riding
in this same indecisive boat. But
I can promise you we’re not sink-
ing.
I am going to take this sum-
mer and use it to do an odd
combination of relaxing and
working hard to make money.
And I know I’m not the only
one doing that, because what
else do college students do with
their summers?
But my advice to all students
at UNC is to try something ri-
diculously new this summer. Do
something that is totally out of
your routine. Date someone who
normally isn’t your type. Apply
for that job you don’t think you
can get. Wear clothes that make
you feel comfortable in your own
skin and disregard what anyone
else says about them. Try food
from a different culture. Go to a
concert for a band you’ve never
heard of. Do things you normally
wouldn’t even think of doing.
Because who knows? You
might like it.

For years, many of us
have been told what a big
deal today is.
We’ve been told that
when we move our tas-
sels from one side of our
goofy hats to the other,
ZH·OO� RIÀFLDOO\� EHFRPH�capital-A Adults.
Like we’ll start paying
bills on time and remem-
bering important meetings
and going to bed before
midnight? Yeah, right.
It’s not that simple, and
even if it was, that’d be
disappointing.
Grown-ups are boring.
Their version of excite-
PHQW�LV�ÀQGLQJ�D�QHZ�NDOH�and caper salad recipe,
and after they read it, they
lose their glasses on the
tops of their heads.
,�GRQ·W�KDYH�OLIH�ÀJXUHG�out, but I know it’s noth-
ing like managing a 401k
(not that I know what
that’s like either).
If you talk with suc-
cessful, happy adults,
they’ll likely say stability
is part of the equation. But
they’re also likely to tell
you how important it is
WR�NHHS�OLIH�IUHVK�DQG�ÀQG�things that excite you.
If you’re leaving the
university setting for
good, don’t become old
overnight.
This isn’t the 1950s. A
college degree no longer
guarantees a stable job,
as it largely did when our
parents were entering the
workforce.
It’s pretty scary to
walk into the job mar-
ket with a paper that
no longer distinguishes
you. But as job require-
ments have changed over
the decades, so have the
jobs themselves. There’s
now more opportunity to
ease into a position than
a half-century ago, even
if that requires taking an
internship.
Work situations are
JHQHUDOO\�PRUH�ÁH[LEOH��DV�are social situations.
It’s OK to move home
with your parents and
work a couple jobs while
\RX� WU\� WR� ÀQG� ZKDW� \RX�want to do.
It’s OK to switch ca-
reers in a few years and
start anew.
Because the value
of a college degree has
diminished, employ-
ers are looking for
prospective hires to prove
themselves in other ways,
and that’s where remain-
ing youthful can come in
handy.
Companies want em-
ployees who think dif-
ferently and can com-
municate those ideas
effectively. They want
employees who are curi-
ous about the job they’ll
be doing and how they
can do it better.
Of course training to do
the job effectively is im-
portant, but your superiors
will remember the
time you taught them how
to post a picture to the
company’s website over
the time you correctly
ÀOHG�D�736�UHSRUW�,VQ·W� WKDW� PRUH� IXOÀOO-
ing, anyway?
We’ve gotten to gradu-
ation day by jumping
through the hoops correct-
ly. Now we have another
opportunity to pick our
own hoops.
Time spent at UNC
wasn’t a total waste,
WKRXJK�� 3DUW� RI� ZKDW�makes college life great
is that there’s always
something new to learn
or experience because,
for the most part, people
are on their own for the
ÀUVW� WLPH�� WU\LQJ� WR�ÀJXUH�out who they are and who
they want to be.
Don’t let that spir-
it of discovery leave
you as you leave here.
This won’t be the last
time you change, and
it won’t be the last time
you need to learn some-
thing.
Your degree may be
commonplace now, but
don’t let it become mean-
ingless. Keep learning.
When we stop asking
questions and start getting
complacent, we end up
watering the sidewalks.

UNC swimmer balances nursing program and athletics successfullyKatarina [email protected]
With weekdays starting at 5 a.m. that
usually consisted of two athletic practices,
a full-time student course load and nursing
clinical practices, Renee Stephens had what
some might call a “full plate” throughout
her four years here.
“There were times when I didn’t know
if was going to make it through the week,”
she said, with a chuckle. “But I learned I
was way better at time management than
I thought.”
The 22-year-old Loveland native is a
graduating nursing major who also spent
her time at UNC as a student-athlete for the
swimming and diving team. She said that
swimming normally took about 20 hours
out of her week, while classes took about
nine hours, and that is not including the
hours she spent on homework and study-
ing. She also said that her clinical days for
the nursing program would sometimes be
up to 12 hours, and they would take ap-
proximately 12-24 hours out of her week.
But Stephens said that she doesn’t a
regret a single thing and wouldn’t change
anything in her time at UNC.
Although Stephens said her swimming
career might not have been top-notch when
she started her freshman year, she grew
as an athlete over her four years at UNC
to eventually place top 8 in her respective
events in the Western Athletic Conference
meet. She was also one of the team’s cap-
tains her senior year, was voted “Most In-
spirational” by her team in 2013, and was
awarded “Most Improved Athlete” by her
team in 2011.
Stephens was also named to the Moun-
WDLQ�3DFLÀF�6SRUWV�)HGHUDWLRQ·V�´$FDGHP-
ic Conference Team” her freshman and
sophomore year, then kept the streak going
when the team moved to the WAC confer-
ence her junior and senior year.
To be eligible for the academic team,
student-athletes must have completed at
least one academic year, have a minimum
3.2 cumulative grade point average and
have participated in at least half of the
team’s meets.
As for her academic career, Stephens
was accepted into UNC’s competitive
QXUVLQJ� SURJUDP� KHU� ÀUVW� WLPH� DSSO\LQJ��She even received a scholar honor award
in 2014, and she said only four nursing
students from the College of Natural and
Health Sciences receive this award.
Stephens said her most rewarding
achievement in the nursing program was
when she was accepted into a Summer
7UDLQLQJ�$IÀOLDWH�5ROH�DW�WKH�0HGLFDO�&HQ-
ter of the Rockies the summer after her ju-
nior year. She worked in the surgical post-
trauma branch of the medical center, and
said it was one of her greatest and proudest
memories.
Stephens also was an active member of
WKH� )HOORZVKLS� RI� &KULVWLDQ�$WKOHWHV�� DQG�
said she played intramural volleyball her
freshman year.
Stephens said she has aspirations to
work at a hospital in Colorado after she
graduates from UNC. She still has some
summer classes to take, as well as a senior

care nurse or as a critical care nurse in the
future.
Stephens said her favorite memory at
81&�ZDV�KHU�ÀQDO�VZLPPLQJ�UDFH�KHU�VH-nior year at the WAC conference meet.
“I remember an old teammate saying
that ‘You’re going to be so nervous but
make sure to look over at the crowd.’ So
I looked up at my mom and saw her going
crazy and waving her arms, then I looked
at my teammates,” she said. “It was just the
accumulation of four years of hard work
WKDW�ÀQDOO\�IHOO�LQWR�SODFH�µStephens, who has the word “blessed”
tattooed on her left wrist, said the word has
been an inspiration to the way she lives her
life.
“I feel beyond blessed to do everything
I did and to be able to excel at it too,” she
said.
Stephens said her family and team-
mates played an important role of a sup-
port system throughout her years at UNC.
She also said her time in college was a fun
and amazing experience, and that it gave
her more opportunities than she could have
asked for.
Hazel E. Johnson award winner aspires to be Northern Colorado educator Monique [email protected]
The Hazel E. Johnson award is presented annually to
both an undergraduate and graduate student for outstand-
LQJ�UHVHDUFK�RQ�&RORUDGR�KLVWRU\��)RU�VWXGHQWV·�ZRUN�WR�EH�submitted, the history department faculty personally re-
quests for them to do so.
Ben McClure, a secondary education history major, is
the undergraduate student who won the Hazel E. Johnson
award this year for his paper about the Grand Junction
Indian School.
“The class that I participated in was the history of
American education,” McClure said. “I was kind of in-
terested in the Native American aspect of it. So I decided
to do my paper on Native American boarding schools; I
also wanted to do something with Colorado History and
through researching, I learned about the Grand Junction
Indian School.”
To write his paper, McClure utilized one of the best
sources he said that the UNC campus had to offer its stu-
dents: the Michener Library archives.
With the help of several Michener employees and hours
RI�VLIWLQJ�WKURXJK�ERRNV�DQG�DUWLFOHV�WR�ÀQG�ZKDW�KH�QHHG-
ed, McClure began working on his paper.
The Grand Junction Indian School was founded by the
government in 1886. The idea was to make the Indian
population become more American through learning the
English language, in a setting that was not in any way sim-
ilar to the Native American tribe’s settlement. It was later
renamed as the Teller Institute in 1891.
McClure said his academics were an important part of
his time at UNC.
“While clubs and friends are good to have, it’s im-
portant to make sure you have time to study,” McClure
said. “As it is important to use all the resources you
have available.”
McClure worked in the dining hall for three years, and
he said he made several good friends from the experience.
He said he knows the importance of time management
and knows how to balance his time between work, study-
ing and spending time with friends.
After graduating, McClure said he plans to teach in
Northern Colorado, hopefully in the Greeley area. He said
he made his decision to stay in the Greeley area after com-
pleting his practicum at Greeley West High School.
He said he was inspired by the many cultural differ-
ences at the high school.
“I want to be able to show Somalians that they can go
to college just as much as anyone else,” McClure said.
“I learned a lot from them during my practicum and
I admire them.”

Steven: The man, the legend and the unforgettable bow tieBiz Gilmore [email protected]
A college ca-reer isn’t always packed up into a neat, four-year package. Steven Josephson zig-zagged cross country traveling wide to change schools, take time off for a religious commitment, changed schools again and ultimately end up right where he’d had liked to KDYH� VWDUWHG� LQ� WKH� ÀUVW�place: the University of Northern Colorado.
The printmaking student who has held the highest position in UNC student media for the past year graduates on Satur-day. To keep in line with his ever-shifting college life, his next step is only quasi-related to the previ-ous. Josephson has accept-ed a position with the Teach for America program. He’s moving to Detroit with his wife, Corey, for two years.
Josephson gradu-
ated high school in Ber-thoud. Initially he’d wanted to go to UNC for teaching, but his guidance counselor informed him he was short a math class. So he set off on the road to Rhode Is-land, attending Johnson and Wales in Providence. He picked up a movie review for the school paper; some ,0$;� ÀOP� KH� GRHVQ·W� UH-member except that Tom Hanks narrated it.
After a year at Johnson and Wales, he ended up at a community college in Wy-oming, Northwest College. Still a graphic design ma-jor, he took his newfound interest in print media with him.
After a two-year break to go on a religious mission in and around the Midwest, Josephson re-turned to Northwest Col-lege and their paper as the graphics chief and eventu-ally worked up to managing editor. He graduated with an associate’s in graphic
design, and headed to Gree-ley in the fall of 2012.
And of course, he didn’t give up his love af-fair with journalism.
“I transferred to UNC kind of last minute, but I knew I was going to be involved in journalism. Newsprint had gotten in my
veins,” Josephson said. Josephson came
on staff swinging, a re-sult of being accustomed to very direct journalistic leadership. Admittedly, Jo-sephson didn’t make the EHVW� ÀUVW� LPSUHVVLRQ� RQ�some of The Mirror staff.
Josephson even-
tually focused his efforts on The Mirror’s online and print redesign. As he changed the paper, he—and particularly his wife Co-rey—changed the building through remodeling.
“In the six years I served as the general man-ager of The Mirror, I did not meet another student with a higher newspaper or communication IQ than Steven,” said Kurt Hinkle, former general manager, in an email with The Mirror. “Steven bleeds newspaper ink and was the guiding force behind the paper’s re-cent redesign, the remodel-ing of the building and the overall culture change.”
Josephson changed his major from graphic design to printmaking at UNC, which is a change he said he never expected.
´(VSHFLDOO\� LQ� P\� ÀUVW�year here, I always saw myself as someone who was masquerading as an artist. I was hoping that
people didn’t notice that I didn’t have mad skills,” Josephson said.
It would seem that he is past his imposter phase, as Josephson recently won best in printmaking at a student show, and Provost Robbyn Wacker attended his senior portfolio presentation.
His favorite combina-tion of words is “ironic juxtaposition,” which could be used to classify his mul-tifaceted involvement.
“I do art and journalism now, and I’m becoming an elementary school teacher in three months. I like a lot of dif-ferent things. It just kind RI� ÁRZV� WKDW� ,� ZRXOG� JR�into a lot of different areas and spread myself out as well. I had the hardest time picking out what I wanted to be when I grew up,” Josephson said.
So the art major, the newspaper editor, the teacher gets to be every-thing when he grows up.
The student who proves, “Not all who wander are lost”Antonio Hill [email protected]
For every student who walks through the gates at Cran-ford Park during orientation, a journey begins. No one can say what will happen in the next four years or even if it will be four years before the journey at UNC is over, but one thing is certain: each Bear’s journey will come to an end.
In the case of graduating senior sociology major Am-ber “Billy” Chadderdon, her journey began in 2008. Even WKRXJK�LW�ZDV�ÀOOHG�ZLWK�XQFHUWDLQW\��DQG�D�ELW�RI�D�ORQJHU�VWD\�WKDQ�LQWHQGHG��VKH�VD\V�VKH�KDV�EHQHÀWHG�IURP�HYHU\�minute of her time at UNC and touched more lives than possibly any student.
´,�ZDV�EULHÁ\�D�SDUW�RI�7KH�&UXFLEOH�� DQG� ,�ZDV�YHU\�involved with UNC’s International Film Series,” Chadder-don said. “I worked at Subway and the computer lab, so I pretty much knew everyone. I worked at Subway since it opened, and I met some amazing people that I hope to stay connected with.”
Chadderdon says she tried to take everything in while attending UNC. She made sure to make people smile if they were having a bad day, and she said she tried her best to get to know as many people possible out of pure curios-ity. She says she even made an effort to have an impact on her professors.
“If I could give incoming freshman any advice, I would say always introduce yourself to your professors,” Chad-
derdon said. “Also, never be afraid to ask questions. It will save your life.”
Chadderdon also said that following her own advice has EHQHÀWWHG�KHU�LQ�PDNLQJ�FRQQHFWLRQV�
“I have a few professors that feel like family, and they will be there to support me in my future,”Chadderdon said.

“Regardless of what people think, everything will turn out OK one way or another. It may not be perfect for you or anyone else, but everything will be OK,” Chadderdon said. “You will move on, and you will learn to deal with it because you are a human being and that’s what we do. We deal with our crap.”
Chadderdon was able to balance the ups and downs of her life outside school and work as well.
Overcoming the loss of her father was no simple task but getting married to her high school sweetheart brought cherished moments. All are perfect examples of why she is more than just another college kid.
College is the time in most student’s lives in which they hope to learn who they are and what they want to be.

Softball captain Megan
Wilkinson stayed close to
home and close to her sister
when she decided to play
softball at UNC. She got to
play two years of college-
level softball with older sis-
ter Erin, and said her best
softball memory is the last
conference game she and
her sister played togeth-
er before Erin graduated
in 2012.
“Probably my favor-
ite memory overall is, I
think it was the last con-
ference series we were
playing my sister’s senior
\HDU� DQG� ,� WKUHZ� P\� ÀUVW�complete game of my col-
lege career to her last con-
ference game of her senior
year and we swept the se-
ries, so I thought that was
really cool.”
Erin Wilkinson, who is
currently working on her
doctorate in physical ther-
apy at CU Denver, also re-
members the game and said
it was pretty “special.”
“It was nice to see her
come into her own in a col-
lege environment, and it
was good to see her really
shine like I knew she could.
She’s going to do great
things,” Erin said.
Wilkinson is one step
closer to her dream of being
a doctor as she graduates
with honors with a degree
in biology with an empha-
sis in pre-health.
She will continue at
Northern Colorado’s one-
year masters program be-
fore attending a six-year
doctorate program.
“I think the profes-
sion has always interested
me,” Wilkinson said. “I’ve
played sports my whole
life, and you see people get
injured. I want to be the
person that can help ath-
OHWHV�JHW�EDFN�RQ�WKHLU�ÀHOG�of play.”
Wilkinson is sporting her
own “gnarly” dark purple
bruises on the inside of her
upper right arm, where she
got hit twice while at bat in
this weekend’s series. De-
spite the physical demands
of softball, she’s loved the
sport for years.
When she was recruited
as a high school senior cap-
tain on her softball team at
Windsor High School, she
already had personal ties
to UNC.
“The coach that recruit-
ed me, I have known since
I was probably about 12,
and the assistant coach was
the one that started me with
pitching lessons,” Wilkin-
son said. However, the two
coaches resigned before
Wilkinson got the chance to
play for them.
Wilkinson’s other tie to
UNC was her sister Erin,
who was the catcher on the
team at the time. Wilkin-
son said she was happy to
have the opportunity to
play with her sister at the
college level.
Wilkinson said rather
than inhibit her studies,
softball has helped her
time-management, and
also has helped her build
relationships with her pro-
fessors because of her odd
schedule and frequent one-
on-one meetings to go over
missed material.
Wilkinson also had her
advisor, Patrick Burns, and
her softball coach, Shana
Easley, to thank for her suc-
cesses.
She said the two are
very supportive and con-
stantly push her to be
her best.
Wilkinson said she’s ac-
complished quite a bit so
far, and can’t decide what
she’s most proud of.
“I think the three years
that I’ve been here so far,
I’ve been selected as an
academic All-American
for softball, so I think that
that’s a really big accom-
plishment. And last year,
our team GPA was the sec-
ond-highest in the NCAA
for all Division I schools.”
Erin Wilkinson had only
praise for her motivated sis-
ter and her work so far.
“I cannot say enough
for her work ethic and her
passion, in softball and in
her academics,” Erin said.
“She’s earned it all, and I’m
so glad she gets to go on
and achieve those goals.”
As Wilkinson says good-
bye to being an undergrad,
she said she looks back on
KHU�ÀUVW�IRXU�\HDUV�DW�81&�with satisfaction.
“This is a great school,”
Wilkinson said. “I’m really
happy I decided to come
here, and the family that
I’m leaving with. I’ve made
some of the best friends
that I’ll probably ever have,
and I have some of the best
relationships with teachers
that I’ll probably ever have.
It’s just a great school.”

When ‘good’ isn’t good enough: the triple-major athleteStaff [email protected]
Graduating senior Joseph
Carroll stands on his home
turf at Nottingham Field for
one of the last times before he
graduates and moves on into the
“real world.”
Carroll is a triple major
in history, anthropology and
geology. He also played on
the Northern Colorado student
football team in 2011. He’s
dedicated just as much time
and commitment, if not more,
to his academics as he has to
his athletics.
