Encaenia 2009

Despite a touch of grey weather at the start of the week, Encaenia 2009 came to a sunny finale with a gorgeous graduation day. And the weather wasn't the only aspect of the week that failed to disappoint: the Encaenia activities were well attended and much loved, and the speeches and addresses that peppered these events brought both motivation and reminiscence to the rooms that received them.

Read on for a pictorial peek at the week's activities, along with a taste of these touching speeches, including Dr. Stephanie Nolen's honest and inspiring address at the Encaenia ceremonies, Dr. Henry Roper's looking-back during the President's Dinner, and Eli Burnstein's heartfelt Valedictory address.
