Santo Domingo.- It is never too late to make dreams come true, as 87-year-old Rafael Augusto Montes de Oca demonstrated today after graduating as an agricultural engineer from the Autonomous University of Santo Domingo.
Rafael Augusto went through many difficulties throughout his life that prevented him from reaching such a desired goal, but his perseverance was greater than finally being able to obtain his title.
This act of investiture was very important for Rafael Augusto because he managed to close that cycle of his life and become an example both for his children and grandchildren, as well as for the university itself, since it certifies the graduation of a new professional who was trained and he had been exercising even when he did not have the endorsement to exercise said functions.
Today, together with his classmates, they celebrated Rafael’s great triumph.
