WLOX-TV - The News for South Mississippi: Bush Praises "Resilience" Of MGCCC Graduates: "President Bush praised the post-Hurricane Katrina resilience of Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College graduates Thursday, including a mother who finished college to honor a son killed in military action.

He also urged more than 660 graduates to use their education to help their communities recover from the hurricane, which destroyed broad swaths of south Mississippi when it blew ashore Aug. 29.

'I ask you to rise to the challenge of a generation: Apply your skill and your knowledge, your compassion and your character, and write a hopeful new chapter in the history of the Gulf Coast,'' Bush said."
