Letter from the Student Advisory Board President
Dear Friends of COSLI,
On May 24, twenty-one lives were lost. Families, communities, school districts, and the country in disbelief, anger, sadness, called for action and even clashed. But perhaps the most hideous perspective on this situation is that this is not a rare occurrence for the United States, the only country in the world where educators must enter the classroom with fear of how they will protect their students and return home to their families, all while working long hours for low wages.
“Arm the teachers. Increase security. Improve police response to active shootings. Put more guns in the school.” How many solutions can we propose before we address the legitimate problem at its roots? How many lives must be sacrificed before the necessary legislation is implemented to foster safer environments and provide the equitable resources needed to combat mental illness? These past few weeks, it has been difficult to sit back and see the pervasive issues of gun violence spread far and wide in this country. However, the most disgusting thing to witness is the perpetuation of lies and blatantly ignorant claims our country’s legislature continues to make. The fabrics of democracy that this country was founded on are seeming to crumble under the exponentially increasing polarization that has seeped into every political supposedly bipartisan compromise. The issues the American people must overcome seem to never end, and instead become more and more complex with this ever-evolving world we live in today. We are not strangers to inaction on policy reform; however, we cannot continue to sit back and create unrealistic realities for the American teacher and continue to see youth slaughtered by gun violence. I hope we all can find compromise in a solution.
As I finalized my college decision choice and finished the last finals of my high school career and Ramadan reached a close, I couldn’t help but find the situation so surreal. It seemed like only yesterday that I was preparing for my first day of high school, worried about fitting in, academic adjustment, and what activities I would do. Nonetheless, I found myself in the same predicament as I navigated what the next four years of my life and academic career will entail. While in the process of choosing the best school to meet my career goals, I had a dynamic conversation with a COSLI alumni who underwent my same decision process. He began to explain how radically the world had transformed since his time in college and the plethora of issues that would need innovative thinking to combat. The insight he provided illustrated the changing world we live in through a different lens, and looking back on the conversation in retrospect, I began to understand that the responsibilities and tasks that lie ahead for my generation may seem unsolvable and frightening at times. After relaying this concern to him, he assured me that we have already overcome so much adversity in the past two years: defeating a global virus, highlighting the importance of social justice reform, and giving voice to the existential issues that have affected us for decades. Knowing this, I could rest assured that the essential solutions needed to combat the problems of today and tomorrow were simply stored in the minds of young innovators and problem solvers.
Thank you and all the best,

Letter from the Founding Executive Director
Friends of COSLI is proud to be a Project of the Rose Community Foundation
This is the newsletter that I find so bittersweet each year. Our students are graduating - and doing, saying, and writing amazing things. But they are moving on. That’s what makes it the most difficult of all. Each year we send a book to each senior as our way of saying, “Good job - go forth and do good works.” This year, we sent over 40 books! Every single one of these now active American citizens has been accepted to a four-year college. Every single one of them has a vision or thought for what they hope to accomplish. With hearty congratulations and such pride, this month I’m going to let them speak for themselves. Below, please see the graduation speeches of two COSLI student board members who are graduating from high school this year, and one former member who has just graduated from Colorado State University.

COSLI Alumni Fearue
By Knox Leonard and Allison Thomas
Lorenz Wilkins, a computer science major at CU Denver, attended COSLI in 2017 on account of his friend Ayanle’s good word. Despite Ayanle’s high praises, Lorenz never expected how much he would grow over the course of the program. Lorenz’s favorite memory was during his first week at COSLI when he and his peers found themselves suspended hundreds of feet in the air on a high ropes course. He is grateful for the deep understanding of civic engagement he gained and the invaluable life lessons he learned that would propel him through his young adult life.
One of these life lessons was the importance of connections. Connections with Celeste, Kayla, and the COSLI alumni network are all valuable resources that a COSLI student can use to establish relationships and discover opportunities. To Lorenz, connections “open up so many opportunities around you that would otherwise be closed.” His personal success in procuring internships, jobs, and classes is a testament to the effectiveness of employing these connections.
With the interpersonal skills developed at COSLI, Lorenz was able to forge connections through Handshake and Linkedin that landed him a job at LynxConnect. There, he decided to serve his community, approving internships and jobs for his fellow peers at CU Denver. Although he admits that the future is frightening, Lorenz dreams of working for a respectable game company where he can utilize his education, ideas, and infectious humor to make meaningful contributions. He jokes that along with a stable job, he wouldn’t mind a personal chauffeur solely dedicated to Taco Bell trips.
Finally, Lorenz would like to share the story of the late Chalino Sanchez, a beloved singer and songwriter from Mexico. Minutes before his final performance, Sanchez received a death note from the Mexican cartel ordering him to stop singing. Nonetheless, Sanchez chose to defy their wrongdoing and cruelty, and delivered his greatest performance yet. His love for his craft in the face of imminent danger serves as an inspiration to Lorenz, who admires his courage and passion. Listen to Sanchez’s performance here.

Lessons Learned
By Skyla Rogers
Though COSLI is full of fun and exciting events, students are expected to complete a series of assignments to pass the course. One of the biggest assignments is the National History Day Colorado (NHDC) project. Since the NHDC state competition wrapped up on 4/30, students are eager to reflect on the progress that they have made.
NHDC is an event that students throughout the state of Colorado participate in. This year, students were expected to find an event that followed the theme of debate and diplomacy and felt impactful for them. For most, this project was about making a statement, and in the process, inciting a change. Student topics varied from the civil rights movement for women, massacres of the Native Americans, governmental and economic disasters, and projects about racial injustice around the state. As students competed in each region, state qualifications were awarded to a few lucky COSLI students. Those who did not advance showed perseverance and acceptance, which is valued in COSLI. It does not mean that they did a bad job, it means that they have good sportsmanship and are able to grow from failure.
For Cayley Swaim, a 2021 COSLI student, the NHDC experience taught a lot. Regarding her project topic, she says “I was inspired by current movements toward reparations toward the Black Community and wanting to reconcile it with some sort of comparison to a past event. I heard about past reparations and was fascinated by the story behind the movement and the impact, even when it was so little.” She was disappointed that she didn't place, but definitely learned a lot through the process. “[Though the process was] daunting,” she described, “I really feel more prepared for college because of COSLI's help in this way.”
Vianney Escobedo Herrera, another COSLI student, did her project on Colorado's irrigation system and how its development has affected the history of Colorado over time. She stated, “My topic is meaningful to me for a variety of different reasons, such as how irrigation plays a major role in agriculture, which provides many of our food resources. It is also important to me as someone who has grown up with a family who worked and continues to work in the agricultural workforce. Hence due to the development of these systems, this is what has led to bigger successes for people in this field including my family and people from everywhere around.” Herrera's project also hit close to home; her relatives and family have a history working in agriculture and with irrigation systems, which is another reason why this topic particularly impacted her. As one of the lucky few students, Herrera placed at her regional competition and came in third place in the Senior Exhibition category. But she didn't get third place alone. Herrera expresses that “having the help of both Celeste and Kayla when generating ideas for a good topic and reviewing and improving my writing and critical thinking skills is what has led to success at my regionals competition. Throughout my COSLI experience, the practice of presentation skills, topic analysis skills, and observing topics from a more in-depth perspective along with getting the opportunity to work with other students and receive constructive criticism all factored into my success.”

COSLI Alumni Graduation Speeches
COSLI Alumni Graduation Speeches
Sunbul Zeerak (Colorado State University):
Growing up I saw that boys were given the opportunity to an education over girls. Over their own sisters. Growing up I heard that a daughter is not your own. They become strangers once they get married. Maybe this is why boys were favored over girls. Because boys were more valuable to parents, families, and society than girls.
I was born a girl to a mother who did not have access to education due to a similar mentality. Due to the lack of access to education in marginalized and low-income communities in Pakistan. Despite many struggles, she tried her best to send my sister and I to school. Due to many obstacles, I must confess I did not get to attend 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th grade. To create the possibility of achieving higher education for my siblings and I, my parents moved to the US.
My great-grandmother never received any form of education. My grandmother never received any form of education. My mother never had the opportunity to earn a college degree. 1999 was the first time someone from our family received a college degree, my uncle. Today, 23 years later, I am the first woman in my family ever to graduate with a college degree.
It was challenging to be a minority in college when minority college experiences are not shared or welcomed by our universities. I’m thankful for having great mentors to ask for help during times of struggle. I am here today for my ancestors and for the women in my family that never had this opportunity. I am here for my childhood girlfriends that became a victim to the “girls don’t need education” mentality. I am here for all the girls and women who are denied the right to an education. I speak for myself and them when I say, “We too deserve an education.”
Let today be a reminder of our privilege. Let today be the time we thank those that came before us to make college education a possibility for all of us. Don’t undermine your achievements. Be proud of them. With this degree today, we get power: the power of education. How you use it is up to you. We graduate today, but our fight for a better world for all of us is not over. Make higher education a possibility for those that come after you just like the people that came before us. As you navigate life, challenge your understanding of the world and your perspective of the world.
Allison Thomas (Wiggins High School):
Good afternoon everyone! My name is Allison Thomas, and I’m honored to be speaking today. First of all, I would like to thank everyone for coming. I appreciate your support and attendance. Thank you to the graduates for being here to celebrate as a class one last time. Thank you to the administration and maintenance staff for making this ceremony a possibility. Thank you to the teachers for leading the learning environment we’ve grown up in. And thank you to friends, family, guardians, and more for your support throughout the past 17 or 18 years of our lives. Secondly, congratulations to the graduates! Four years of high school, and it’s all over so quickly. I don’t know about the rest of you, but senior year went insanely fast. I swear it was August a couple months ago. Anyways, that stuff is in every commencement speech, let me move on to something more interesting.
I could stand up here and tell you about how COVID-19 affected our class so deeply or tell small stories about our rural community or even tell you some random, seemingly insignificant knowledge, but I have a bigger goal with this speech; I hope to motivate each of you to be the change we as a society need. I’m going to be honest with you, I’ve struggled a lot with mental health throughout high school. Would you have guessed that? I have good grades, I’m involved in sports, I’m active in clubs, I participate in several activities outside of school, and yet, I’m facing some of the biggest internal struggles I could imagine. I am going to discuss some hard subjects regarding mental health, so this is a warning for any sensitivities in the area. This speech was in fact written post-mental breakdown. I often feel as though I am failing; nothing I do can fill the void left by high expectations. I often feel completely alone; no one cares, and no one has a reason to care. I often feel undeserving of necessary activities to keep myself alive; now that’s a hard one to share. However, if my vulnerability can make any one of you feel understood or less alone, it is worth it. Now, I’m not asking for a pity party. I’m up here exposing my own internal challenges to let you know that you are seen; you are not alone. No matter how well a person may hide their battles, we are all experiencing pain.
I know that I’m not alone in these feelings, because year after year, month after month, we hear stories about the seemingly content student losing their lives to suicide. How many students have to take their lives before mental health issues are taken seriously? This is not an attack on our school for failing to recognize these signs, but rather, a callout to our entire society, our community, and ourselves as individuals. What is our future without this generation? If we fail to recognize and care for the issues arising, the future of all of humanity is at stake.
We need change and we need it now. Dear the Class of 2022, I see you struggling. I know that you wish for change the same as I do. I am telling you now, you have the power to be that change you wish to see. Wherever you end up in the next few months, the next few years, the next few decades, whether it’s a state school, a family business, or another country, be an advocate for yourself and others. Be open and honest when possible. Allow for others to feel seen and comfortable with the issues they face. If we communicate our struggles, prove that we are not alone, we can be the change needed to save lives.
Before I leave Wiggins, and as you all know I’ll be out quickly, I am going to discuss how mental health is handled here for the purpose of highlighting where adjustment is needed. As someone who is still struggling mentally to this very moment, I can confidently say that not enough is done. Counseling systems are not inclusive enough, mental health issues are disregarded or ignored for convenience, the options needed are not available. This is not necessarily the school’s fault; they simply follow the guidelines of the rest of society. However, that is where the issue lies. In order to be effective, we need to step up and lead before we suffer the same losses as the neighboring schools we signed posters for. Societal change starts small, and we can be a part of that change. Wiggins can be a part of that change, Wiggins graduates can bring that with them, and all of you, parents, guardians, family friends, and more, can take this message with you, as well. Everyone in this room is capable of being the change we wish to see. I hope to have motivated you to do so, for the sake of our future.
Once again, congratulations to our graduates. I know it’s been hard, I know you’ve spent countless days struggling, but you’ve made it, and we’re onto taking on new battles. Good luck to each of you. Thank you.
Mohamed Ibrahim (Wiggins High School):
Thank you all for joining us today.
As many of you may already know, my name is Mohamed Ibrahim, but more importantly, I am the son of two Palestinian, Muslim immigrants who tirelessy worked to place me in the position I am currently in. Traveling over 5,000 miles, leaving family, oppression, and conquering mountains along the way to provide their six children with access to a free, quality education, my parents sacrificed everything to allow me to speak before all of you as the class of 2022 valedictorian.
However, perhaps this speech is not the best representation of their sacrifices as it was prepared in a hotel lobby room at state track… and of course, it was completed last minute just like all of my other senior year assignments.
Nonetheless, as I was preparing this speech reflecting back on my identity as a Muslim student in rural Colorado, I recounted my constant experiences with blatant igorniance, conflicting opinions, and fundamental challenges to who I was as a minority person. As I matured and found my belonging in this community and school as an athlete, scholar, and force for change, I still found myself lacking the necessary puzzle piece to understand this grand mosaic of life.
However, I soon realized this puzzle piece could not be discovered within myself. Instead, it is constantly being developed and fostered by all of you. Teachers, administrators, friends, family, mentors, and everyone else that has served a lasting footprint big or small in our lives. Ultimately, this transcends far beyond my identity as a Palestinian Muslim in this community. It illustrates the resilience, courage, and excellence of every other graduate I am honored to join here today.
Overcoming unprecedented circumstances, combatting a global pandemic, and above all listening to Dr. Saulmon’s dystopian future of education has demonstrated just how powerful a group of students we are. Once again, I find myself referring back to the metaphorical mosaic we all contribute to, each of us taking our own unique pathway. Some of us are on track to become doctors, engineers, computer scientists, and individuals pushing the frontiers of knowledge to new limits. Others will maintain decades-long tradition in agriculture and sustainability, while others are waiting to pave new pathways, being the first in their families to attend college or trade school, run a business, or start a family bringing new life onto this Earth. No matter what route for success each of the 42 graduating seniors beside me will choose, I am confident that the empowering lessons and close relationships we have fostered in the hallways of this school will provide a foundation for this new chapter of life we embark on. The journey will be hard and difficult, but with great discomfort comes great growth and transformation. As Mufti Ismail Menk, a wise Muslim scholar said, “Every hardship you’ve experienced has served to make you the person that you are today. There are valuable lessons in everything that happens to you. Stop asking why it happened and focus on how you should respond.” Class of 2022, we have responded, but above all these responses have molded us into the people we are today. People that will become significant contributors to our society. People that will become educated, and most importantly, people that have given back to this community and so many others when the opportunity arose, solidifying our role as global citizens in this constantly evolving world.
As we prepare to embark on a new journey in life, our responsibilities have exponentially increased. In the last few months, we have witnessed highlights on social justice, political polarization, and experienced the consequences of existential issues that will affect us for decades. With this new avenue of global citizenship, I feel it necessary to bring voice to the atrocities and systemic oppression and apartheid that affects hundreds of million of people today. From the holy land of Palestine and throughout the Middle East to the beaches of Somalia and corrupted government in west Africa, WE are the changemakers that must recognize the importance of policy reform and power in knowledge. I wear this kufiya across my gown today as a voice for those who were silenced and as a lens for those who could not see past the oppressive systems set before them.
For my final remarks, it has been a true pleasure and honor to develop and mature with you all. To our parents, teachers, and everyone that has traveled far and wide to celebrate our successes, we are forever grateful for your sacrifices. You have been the roots to our growth, the platforms which we stand on, and the visions and legacy we live through.
Thank you all and a congratulations to the class of 2022.
