Bride-To-Be Set To Graduate This Saturday

And the beat goes on and on and on…

In addition to getting engaged, Sarah Elizabeth Douglas is happy to announce that she will be graduating from E.L. Goss University this Saturday, June 4, 2011. The bride-to-be is set to earn her Master’s in Business Administration, but she won’t be alone; her best friends Melissa Roberts, Natalie Marcellia, and Candace Jones—all of whom happen to be Sarah’s bridesmaids—will also be earning their MBA’s from Goss U.

Saturday’s commencement ceremony will take place at 2 p.m. inside the Matthews Auditorium. We spoke to each of the graduates as it relates to this Saturday, and here’s what they had to say:

SARAH DOUGLAS: “I guess it can be said that I’m on Cloud Nine, and rightfully so. I mean, think about—I’m engaged to be married, and I’ve completed the satisfactory requirements to earn my MBA. The plan is to be a famous author, and then turn my books into a cartoon. By the way, I would like to dedicate my graduation to my late grandfather, Ralph B. Gosinheimer. This one’s for you, Grandpa—love you lots.”

NATALIE MARCELLIA: “It has always been my dream to be a talk show host, and earning a Master’s degree is helping me reach that dream. This is so exciting—who would’ve thought that two years in grad school would go by so quickly. It seemed like yesterday that Lizzie, Leili, Candi, and I had enrolled in the MBA program. I’m looking forward to this Saturday… I cannot wait!”

MELISSA ROBERTS: “The MBA program at Goss University was relatively easy for me, considering that I got my undergrad in Business Administration at Oklahoma University. Like my fellow angels, I have big dreams and goals myself. I plan on becoming an actress and a movie producer. Special thanks to Goss University—it’s been a long time comin’, but that change has come.

CANDACE JONES: “When I graduated from Bennett University in 2009, I knew that it would be a minute before I opened up my dance academy. After getting turned down from job interview after job interview, I decided that I needed a different approach—and it just so happened that Lizzie, Nattie, and Leili had the same frustration that I had. We decided to take it one step higher and go to grad school. Two years later, and we’ve achieved our goal. I’m excited, but I know that my Gramma Jewel is just overjoyed. After all, I am the first in my family to attend and graduate from grad school. And somewhere up in Heaven, my Grampa Clark has already reserved his ringside seat. And to my fellow angels, I say: Congratulations—we done did it!”

Congratulations to Sarah, Natalie, Melissa, and Candace… and we wish you the absolute very best in all that you achieve and accomplish.
