The following is a correction to the 2021 Afterglow: There was a caption that read "Molly tied for valedictorian by having the same GPA as Carley, but allowed Carley to give the valedictorian speech." That statement is not correct. Based on their GPAs, Carley Habing was the Class of 2021 Valedictorian and Molly Niemerg was the Class of 2021 Salutatorian. Congratulations to both on their achievements!
