Channel 13 Awards GED Diplomas

The 2002 Student Recognition Day, a ceremony for individuals who have recently received their English As A Second Language (ESL) or General Education Diploma (GED) certificates, took place recently on the sixth floor of 450 West 33rd Street. The event, which was sponsored by both Thirteen/WNET New York and the Office of Adult and Continuing Education of the Board of Education of the City of New York, drew around fifty people and was moderated by Andre S. Gleaton, Director of Adult Education, Thirteen/WNET. A number of individuals spoke at the event, including NYU professor Suzanne Carothers, who also received an honorary degree that day and Richard Fish, Director of the Mayor’s Office of Adult Literacy. Fish urged the graduates to contact him in a year to let him know how their lives had progressed since graduation. The ceremony also included student performances (several students read pieces of work they had written) and testimonials.#
