<strong>The</strong> <strong>Shorthorn</strong>: Michael Minasi

Speaking<br />

from experience<br />

Nursing gradu<strong>at</strong>e student to reflect<br />

on obstacles during her speech<br />

BY HOLLY WARD<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Shorthorn</strong> staff<br />

<strong>The</strong> nursing educ<strong>at</strong>ion master’s program is<br />

rel<strong>at</strong>ively new to UTA and Melissa Sepulveda Tran<br />

is only one <strong>of</strong> four students to earn this degree this<br />

year. She’ll speak <strong>at</strong> Gradu<strong>at</strong>ion Celebr<strong>at</strong>ion <strong>at</strong><br />

7:30 p.m. Friday.<br />

Gradu<strong>at</strong>ion Celebr<strong>at</strong>ion is an annual event held<br />

during May commencement weekend in celebr<strong>at</strong>ion<br />

<strong>of</strong> the gradu<strong>at</strong>ing class. <strong>The</strong> 2012 celebr<strong>at</strong>ion<br />

<strong>at</strong> Levitt Pavilion will also include speeches from<br />

award-winning actor James Franco and President<br />

James Spaniolo.<br />

“I am humbled and honored to be selected,”<br />

Tran said. “I just don’t know why I stand out in<br />

the gradu<strong>at</strong>e program, there are others qualified<br />

to speak as well.”<br />

Amy Schultz, associ<strong>at</strong>e vice president <strong>of</strong> communic<strong>at</strong>ions<br />

and community rel<strong>at</strong>ions, said every<br />

year one college is asked to pick a student to speak<br />

on behalf <strong>of</strong> his or her perspective college affili<strong>at</strong>ion,<br />

his or her peers and his or her fellow gradu<strong>at</strong>es.<br />

“This year, Melissa was chosen by the dean and<br />

faculty <strong>of</strong> the College <strong>of</strong> Nursing based upon her<br />

commitment to academic excellence and pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />

successes,” said Bridget Lewis, senior media<br />

rel<strong>at</strong>ions <strong>of</strong>ficer.<br />

<strong>The</strong> 28-year-old gradu<strong>at</strong>e student was contacted<br />

in February about speaking <strong>at</strong> the gradu<strong>at</strong>ion<br />

event.<br />

“I was overwhelmed and anxious <strong>at</strong> first. I just<br />

started working on my final speech here recently,<br />

and I felt pretty good about it.” Tran said. “<strong>The</strong>n I<br />

found out th<strong>at</strong> James Franco would be speaking<br />

too — now I’m really nervous again.”<br />

She said her speech will be about the obstacles<br />

she overcame as she earned her educ<strong>at</strong>ion.<br />

“It is not a commencement speech. It is a<br />

speech for a celebr<strong>at</strong>ion <strong>of</strong> gradu<strong>at</strong>es,” Tran said.<br />

“I hope to inspire and share with the students th<strong>at</strong><br />

no m<strong>at</strong>ter wh<strong>at</strong> comes their way in life, th<strong>at</strong> they<br />

can do it.”<br />

She said she gradu<strong>at</strong>ed high school early in<br />

2001 because she got married and had a child.<br />

After th<strong>at</strong> she went to El Centro College in 2002<br />

and gradu<strong>at</strong>ed in 2004.<br />

Tran completed her bachelor’s degree <strong>at</strong> UTA<br />

and started her master’s studies <strong>at</strong> UTA in 2009.<br />

“I will never forget th<strong>at</strong> d<strong>at</strong>e I started the master’s<br />

program,” Tran said. “It was the very day th<strong>at</strong><br />

Obama was inaugur<strong>at</strong>ed.”<br />

She said after gradu<strong>at</strong>ion, she will continue<br />

working <strong>at</strong> Baylor Medical Center <strong>at</strong> Dallas.<br />

Tran’s mother Susan Gruspe Sepulveda is a<br />

nurse manager <strong>at</strong> Baylor Medical Center as well.<br />

She said while she had her family as a support<br />

system, her daughter worked very hard to finish<br />

her educ<strong>at</strong>ion.<br />

“I pretty much feel th<strong>at</strong> her success is 90 percent<br />

her drive and the remaining 10 percent is<br />

due to the support <strong>of</strong> her family; this is just how I<br />

feel and may not necessarily be her point <strong>of</strong> view,”<br />

Sepulveda said. “I am not surprised to find th<strong>at</strong><br />

she is speaking. I didn’t tell her, but I knew her<br />

hard work would pay <strong>of</strong>f – I didn’t expect anything<br />

less.”<br />

Michael Sepulveda, Tran’s brother, said he<br />

wasn’t surprised she was chosen to speak <strong>at</strong> gradu<strong>at</strong>ion<br />

festivities because she has worked so hard.<br />

“This is just wh<strong>at</strong> she does,” he said. “She is<br />

resilient with school, work, family and in keeping<br />

up with her C<strong>at</strong>holic faith.”<br />

After gradu<strong>at</strong>ion, Sepulveda decided to follow<br />

her calling in nursing instead <strong>of</strong> taking other nursing<br />

leadership opportunities <strong>of</strong>fered to her.<br />

“As a full-time nurse in the ICU, I find I am so<br />

fulfilled to be a part <strong>of</strong> miracles and making a difference<br />

each day,” she said. “Whether it is helping<br />

someone make hard difficult decisions about life<br />

and de<strong>at</strong>h for a family member or w<strong>at</strong>ch the sickest<br />

people progress to wellness.”<br />

Tran said she didn’t know wh<strong>at</strong> the future holds<br />

beyond th<strong>at</strong>, but she was thankful to the support<br />

<strong>of</strong> her parents, brother, husband and daughter and<br />

UTA faculty in the College <strong>of</strong> Nursing.<br />

BY MICHAEL ELDRIDGE<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Shorthorn</strong> staff<br />

Wh<strong>at</strong> a difference a year<br />

makes between gradu<strong>at</strong>ing in the<br />

dark and odd-feeling <strong>Texas</strong> Hall<br />

to walking across the stage in the<br />

brand new College Park Center.<br />

Everyone except the School <strong>of</strong><br />

Architecture – which has chosen<br />

to have its commencement ceremony<br />

<strong>at</strong> <strong>Texas</strong> Hall again this<br />

year – will be the first to walk<br />

across the stage <strong>at</strong> the new $78<br />

million College Park Center. <strong>The</strong><br />

7,000-se<strong>at</strong> arena is holding its<br />

first commencement ceremony<br />

after playing host to a recordbreaking<br />

UTA basketball team<br />

and a concert from Drake in<br />

March.<br />

S<strong>of</strong>tware engineering senior<br />

Erica Llaca said she is mostly<br />

looking forward to seeing the <strong>at</strong>-<br />

Commencing into the future<br />

<strong>The</strong> spring 2012 gradu<strong>at</strong>ing class breaks<br />

in the new College Park Center and a new era for UTA<br />

mosphere the new facility gives<br />

for a gradu<strong>at</strong>ion ceremony. Llaca<br />

<strong>at</strong>tended the 2011 commencement<br />

in <strong>Texas</strong> Hall and said it<br />

was not wh<strong>at</strong> she was expecting.<br />

“It was extremely small,” Llaca<br />

said. “It was a lot smaller than<br />

I thought it would be. I think<br />

th<strong>at</strong>, for a gradu<strong>at</strong>ion, it should<br />

be in an arena-type place. <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>at</strong>mosphere is better when there<br />

is more people.”<br />

Llaca, who will have 20 <strong>of</strong> her<br />

family and friends joining her <strong>at</strong><br />

this year’s gradu<strong>at</strong>ion, said she<br />

tried to <strong>at</strong>tend a basketball game<br />

<strong>at</strong> the center but had to study. As<br />

she walks across the stage, it will<br />

be her first time in the venue.<br />

“I’ve yet to visit, but I’ve seen<br />

pictures, and it looks gre<strong>at</strong>,” she<br />

said. “It makes the whole gradu<strong>at</strong>ion<br />

ceremony wh<strong>at</strong> it should be.”<br />

This year will also be a test for<br />

the infrastructure <strong>of</strong> how gradu<strong>at</strong>ion<br />

proceeds. Compared to last<br />

year’s gradu<strong>at</strong>ion, the form<strong>at</strong> is<br />

going to be a whole new test in<br />

an arena th<strong>at</strong> communic<strong>at</strong>ions<br />

adviser Melinda Long described<br />

much like the new Cowboys Stadium.<br />

“It is going to be interesting,”<br />

Long said. “We have no idea how<br />

it will progress and look until it<br />

happens. Thinking about traffic,<br />

th<strong>at</strong> is going to be interesting.”<br />

She said this is the first time<br />

the College <strong>of</strong> Liberal Arts has<br />

hosted its ceremony in a single<br />

commencement. <strong>The</strong> disadvantage<br />

she sees is the limit<strong>at</strong>ion<br />

<strong>of</strong> tickets, which students were<br />

not expecting after moving into a<br />

larger facility for the procession.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> assumption was we were<br />

moving into a large place,” Long<br />

said. “Tickets shouldn’t be a<br />

problem, not knowing they were<br />

going to cut us down to one ceremony,<br />

but I understand the time<br />

constraints.”<br />

Long was excited, though, to see<br />

how everything would work out.<br />

She said students were happy to<br />

gradu<strong>at</strong>e anywhere, because they<br />

would finally be done, but family<br />

and friends who come to the ceremony<br />

will like the present<strong>at</strong>ion.<br />

For those who gradu<strong>at</strong>ed beforehand,<br />

there has been some<br />

jealousy displayed. From Facebook<br />

photos and interviews with previous<br />

students, there is some dismay<br />

about being one <strong>of</strong> the last classes<br />

to gradu<strong>at</strong>e <strong>at</strong> <strong>Texas</strong> Hall and<br />

wanting to gradu<strong>at</strong>e in a newer<br />

facility.<br />

<strong>The</strong> sun rises over the College Park Center the morning before its grand opening on Feb. 1. <strong>The</strong> grand opening fe<strong>at</strong>ured a doubleheader with the women’s team and then the men’s basketball team, a ribbon-cutting<br />

ceremony and more.<br />

2010 with a master’s degree in<br />

social work, said there was one<br />

big thing she didn’t like about her<br />

gradu<strong>at</strong>ion.<br />

“We had a limit on the people<br />

we could invite to celebr<strong>at</strong>e with<br />

us,” Salas said.<br />

She said she didn’t like the formality<br />

<strong>of</strong> gradu<strong>at</strong>ion and didn’t<br />

enjoy the limits placed when gradu<strong>at</strong>ing<br />

in an auditorium.<br />

Salas and other alumni give way<br />

to the celebr<strong>at</strong>ion <strong>of</strong> a historical<br />

gradu<strong>at</strong>ion taking place. Llaca and<br />

all <strong>of</strong> those gradu<strong>at</strong>ing this year in<br />

the brand new 218,000-squarefoot<br />

facility will be remembered for<br />

being the first to ever walk across<br />

the stage <strong>at</strong> the UTA College Park<br />

Center.<br />

Q: I’m a 19-yearold<br />

guy, and I have a serious<br />

problem: I have never had a<br />

girlfriend. It’s because I don’t<br />

know how to talk to<br />

girls. I don’t know how<br />

to walk up to a girl<br />

and ask for her name<br />

and number. I’m not<br />

<strong>at</strong>tractive, and I’m<br />

short. <strong>The</strong> thing is, I<br />

don’t like the people<br />

in my area. Everybody<br />

says I’m stuck-up, but<br />

I’m not. I just prefer<br />

to be by myself. Could<br />

you please advise me?<br />

I really need your<br />

help.<br />

A: You can’t<br />

remain by yourself<br />

all the time and<br />

also hope to find a<br />

girlfriend, especially if you<br />

are a bit shy. And stop putting<br />

yourself down! <strong>The</strong>re’s<br />

someone out there for every-<br />

one, but you’ll never find th<strong>at</strong><br />

person if you’re locked up in<br />

your home. <strong>The</strong> best way <strong>of</strong><br />

meeting th<strong>at</strong> someone special<br />

is by having as broad a circle<br />

<strong>of</strong> friends as possible. If a lot<br />

<strong>of</strong> people know th<strong>at</strong> you are<br />

looking, they will help you out.<br />

But if nobody knows, then th<strong>at</strong><br />

help is not available to you.<br />

And stop saying th<strong>at</strong> you don’t<br />

like the people in your area.<br />

Go out with those<br />

people, and use them<br />

to find new people.<br />

Everyone has a circle<br />

<strong>of</strong> friends, and they<br />

don’t all intersect. But<br />

by networking, you<br />

can move into new<br />

circles until you find<br />

one where you will<br />

get along with most<br />

<strong>of</strong> the people in it. But<br />

it’s up to you to put<br />

some effort into this<br />

search and make those<br />

connections. You can’t<br />

do th<strong>at</strong> sitting around<br />

<strong>at</strong> home moping. I’m<br />

not saying th<strong>at</strong> all this<br />

will happen instantaneously,<br />

but if you begin the<br />

process today, then eventually<br />

you’ll succeed. And how do<br />

you begin? Call up one <strong>of</strong> those<br />

people you don’t like so much<br />

and see if you can join him or<br />

her in going to the movies or<br />

bowling or something like th<strong>at</strong>.<br />

Don’t put this <strong>of</strong>f; do it today.<br />

<strong>The</strong> sooner you begin, the<br />

closer you’ll be to finding th<strong>at</strong><br />

girlfriend you seek.<br />
