MMCProud! 💙 A big congratulations to Kathryn Miramontes, who’s been named valedictorian of MMC’s 2023 graduating class. She’ll address faculty and administrators, her classmates, and their families at Commencement, which takes place at the United Palace theater on Friday, May 19. Miramontes is a History major with a concentration in Fashion History and Historical Costuming and an Art History minor. After graduation, she hopes to work as a fashion history research consultant overseeing period costumes on sets or as a stylist. Her message for fellow graduating seniors? “We all have different plans after MMC,” she said. “But my main goal is to tell the Class of 2023 that no matter what your next step is, this is a huge accomplishment. We’re all graduating from college in New York City, and that’s so awesome.”  Go to mmm.edu to read more about Kathryn! #Classof23 #MMC #GoGriffins #collegegraduation #NYC #UES @art.mmc @humsoc_mmc
