Virtual pomp Unprecedented circumstance.
Maria Del Pilar Morales, receiving her degree in global health, watched the celebration from her home in Orange with her mother, stepfather and brother. She said she had had misgivings about a virtual graduation, but it went better than expected.
Some of her favorite moments, she said, were Ferrell’s appearance and the performance by her fellow band members. Best of all, she was able to share the moment with family and friends in Mexico City, Los Angeles, Riverside and Garden Grove. They broke out in smiles and claps when Folt conferred the degrees and declared, “Congratulations, graduates! You are officially USC alumni.”
“I was almost tearing up,” Morales said. “It was really cool to be able to share the experience. ... It’s all for my family.”
