Assemblywoman Laurie Davies Celebrates Oceanside Graduates

Assemblywoman Laurie Davies joined UEI College Oceanside graduates on Friday to celebrate their incredible achievements!

A returning guest to UEI College in Oceanside, California Assemblywoman Laurie Davies delivered empowering remarks at the graduation ceremony that reflected her commitment to workforce opportunity. She shared her personal journey to California and her passion for ensuring all students have access to the California Dream.

A few highlights from her speech:

  • “Let us be very clear — a pathway to a four-year college is not the right pathway for everyone. This is why career training is so important. It’s a pathway that allows you to establish yourself and begin building a meaningful career.”
  • “Today you’re not only graduates. You are the acclamation of your hard work, resilience, and self-belief.”
  • “You’re stepping into the heart of healthcare and other essential industries that keep our communities safe, healthy, and thriving.”
  • “We need more passionate and dedicated workers like you to help continue making the California Dream a reality.”

Assemblywoman Davies emphasized how essential vocational education is to our local and state economies, celebrating each graduate’s role in powering homes and automobiles, caring for patients, supporting health care systems, and serving with professionalism and pride. UEI College Oceanside would like to thank her for inspiring our graduates.
