I felt so proud at that graduation. Seeing my country flag being flown, my son graduated from Monroe, but represented Antigua & Barbuda. He got a scholarship from the Government of Antigua & Barbuda.IT was nice seeing some of the Caribbean flags being flown..I really felt good

Just a correction this is Monroe College graduation in New York and not St. Lucia over 2000 students graduated from the college on that day. Proud to see Dominica’s flag among all other nations.

This was not a government scholarship. Monroe College is the one providing the scholarships thru the Roseau City COuncil, so the Roseau City COuncil have to reply to you.
