Behind every diploma that will be handed out at Fall 2010 Commencement ceremonies Saturday, Dec. 18, is a story of student success. Help UAB spread the good news by e-mailing us with your stories of graduating student successes, plans for the future, proudest moments and more.

Maybe you yourself are the student who wants the world to know what you overcame to get your degree, or maybe you're a faculty member who wants to share what one of your students has already accomplished. Either way, we want to know!

E-mail us at reporter@uab.edu with your suggested story and contact information; we'll be collecting stories for the next few weeks.
