College Student Attends Online Graduation During Pandemic
Season #1Episode #9
This interview took place on April 17, 2020.
Keaton was looking forward to his college graduation ceremony in Martin on May 2, 2020, from the University of Tennessee. He never dreamed it would be via Facebook Live instead of in-person in front of thousands of students, parents, and faculty. After losing his father to cancer the day of his final high school exam four years ago, he’s now facing an unknown path into his career as he finishes his bachelor’s degree. He has been on a long journey of self-discovery and has had to grow up faster than most young adults his age. This is how he is responding.
Keaton is currently a senior at the University of Tennessee at Martin who is pursuing a BSBA degree in Business Management with a minor in English. In his free time, he loves hiking and playing guitar. He also loves writing and is in the process of writing his first memoir.
