Life is Service
Graduation addresses by Professor Errol Miller as then Chancellor at the Mico University College
It would be remiss of us at this Graduation of the Class of 2013 if the Mico did not pay respect to Nelson Mandela at this passing and remember the gift of his life to all of us. Class of 2013, henceforth, your Graduation will be marked and remembered not by the calendar date of December 7, 2013 but by being at end of the week that Nelson Mandela died.
Let us all stand for one minute of Silence as a mark of respect at the passing of Nelson Mandela.
