Dear Katja, Congratulations on earning your degree! I'm so pleased to see your beautiful graduation photos. Graduating summa cum laude is a tremendous and rare achievement. With your intelligence, persistence, love of learning, and concern for others, you are unstoppable. No one can put you in a box; no one can limit you. "Be the change you wish to see in the world" -- indeed! Go, go, go! Best wishes, Bob
OMG, I remember both of those feelings when I graduated from college as well. I had flashbacks when I walked down the aisle listening to my named being called. Totally surreal. Its so awesome you did it Katja & we here are all proud of you.
Congratulations Katja. Glad to see you completed your degree and are working in a field you have a passion for helping others in need. I hope your past doesn't hamper your future too much of a stigma is placed on those who work in the porn industry.
One of the problems with working in the porn industry was for me that I was constantly told that this is who I am and this is the only thing I am and will ever be. There was this atmosphere of fear created to make me believe I could not succeed in any other field. I am very proud that I was able to break out of this cycle and that I just refused to believe it anymore. It was the first step to recovery for myself. I was extremely scared in the beginning of my journey, always worried someone would "out" me and then everything I worked for would be for nothing. But it has not come true. Some people know what I used to do, some others don't. I have had some awesome professors who talked to me about it and expressed their support for me. I have so far only made positive experiences and I am so glad that all my fears of rejection have not materialized. I graduated on top of my class and I am very good at what I do. I have students call me thanking me for tutoring them, telling me I am the reason they succeeded in their class. I don't think they would care about my past in the light of the immense help I provided to them. We will all be judged by others in one form for or another. For our gender, sexual orientation, physical appearance, age, status, religion, skin color, our attitudes, behaviors and maybe even the car we drive. I see that as an unfortunate part of human experience that we all encounter but it's not something that will make me stick my head in the sad and be helpless and hopeless. I will go my way. Maybe not every single opportunity will become reality for my, as for everyone else, but overall I am very confident that I will live a life that I love living.

Congratulations for all of your achievements. Unfortunately the hardships which people with a past in sex-working/porn are confronted with seem to be real and not only make believe. I read about people whose bank accounts were cancelled without explanation, or who were fired from their jobs without a reason and the like. All this reflects the hypocritical way how society deals with humans and sexuality. Until now you somehow fortunately managed to get along with that in a satisfying way. Maybe sooner or later everybody in your social sphere will find out about your pre-study career and maybe this will give you a hard time inbetween, when you need to be totally open about it but this will really separate the wheat from the chaff. Once you´ve overcome this phase it should be much easier, because no one can "out" you anymore. Stay strong and furthermore good luck.
Katja, So great that you have graduated. I always loved your nice pair...of brains. From a classless moron to a classy lady, I wish you all the best. Sphinxy
So happy for you Katja. It's awesome to see you doing well for yourself and achieving a career that you love doing. Congratulations on graduating and I can only hope and wish you all the best for the future. Thank you for all of your scenes and, if there are more scenes in the future, I will be looking forward to them.
I don´t like TS movies, but the question: Is this the last scene of Katja Kassin? Or, in the future, will be another in the vault? http://evilangelvideo.com/title/1000010251
I wish we had more retired girls letting us know what became of their lives. It is really nice to know someone that we enjoyed watching, left the industry and has gone onto a successful life. There are so many doom and gloom stories out there; the unfolding of Katja's life has been refreshing and leaves me feeling good. I know so many guys around here get off on suffering, degradation, etc... but we do have to realize these girls put their bodies through enormous strain for several years with risk of long term consequences in order for us to gain pleasure. They do scenes and acts that may be far beyond what they would ever do personally, because that is what is in demand and what is needed to make a paycheck. And doing it with a smile and saying they love it even if they don't. So, I feel really happy when I know someone has been successful after this career. There are a lot of girls who could contribute to society for a lifetime that get blackballed when people find out they did porn. It takes courage to "make it".

She's done it to me too for no reason also, so don't take it personal. She seems to care to help people yet at the same time can't help being quite rude to some of us, even those who've met her or worked with her

A good rule of thumb is that if someone goes on the internet to publicly complain that a celebrity has blocked them on Twitter, the celebrity probably did the right thing.
Katja has made close to a billion porn movies. Enjoy the ones that she has already made. Let her live her life in peace. I'm proud of you Katja! Congratulations on graduating from college.

I love the graduation photos. Determination, strength, the ability to continue on, to pursue a goal and achieve it, you have done well, Katja. I am proud of you. I wish all the best to you.
I dont know if she will can work well in her new job, I hope so... but every time I look katja kassin's face, the only thing that comes to my mind is her scene from GangBang 4 epic scene oo
Do you find people in the psychology profession to be, how should I put it?, "less concerned" about your previous career? I just assume that they have a wider experience of human variation.
@beramis2563: if one particular scene of my previous work in the adult business is all you can grasp about me as a person despite all the information about my journey I have provided here, then that says more about you than it says about me. People in general are complex individuals that combine more than just one aspect, one characteristic, one single experience. They are to be understood in a holistic way to give them full credit for the multidimensional existence they most likely lead. I feel very sad for anyone who cannot expand their mind to encompass this simple assumption of the human spirit. The scene you mentioned was shot more than 10 years ago and does not represent my life's reality anymore. To look at someone and treat them according to where they were a decade ago seems inappropriate. @Ovidius: why would anyone be "concerned"? I have never been convicted of a felony, I have a perfectly clean driving record, I pass any drug test and I have never been fired from a job. I graduated summa cum laude, I'm on time and reliable. Why would anyone have any concerns? Please explain because I don't understand what you are talking about. To everyone else: thank you for your support and for countering the constant nay sayers. I'm currently taking my first steps in my new career, starting a paid internship. I'm so happy I got the scholarship for that amazing opportunity. Besides that I'm working another part time job in the field of chemical dependency recovery. I'm enjoying my work very much, it makes me happy to help people. I'm super excited to gain more experience in the field to establish myself. I'm planning on applying for my masters this year.
Hi Katja. Take no notice of those who want to be critical of you. It takes someone special to juggle your further education with another occupation AND STILL find the time to contact all of your supporters/fans. But you can still do this. After all that you have graduated. Fantastic news. Keep it going Katja. Take no notice. You are doing great.
One of the best ever, together with Bound gangbangs, those guys destroyed her! btw is there some casting of Katja before she entered into porn?@ KatjaKassin no matter how much you try people will always remember you because of your ass and movies. I bet everyone here wish you return to porn, including me. No offense but that's how it is. Edited by - LittleJohny on 9/1/2014 9:49:00 AM

In porn only. I'm quite sure her real name is not Katja Kassin. She'll be able to transition into her regular life once established in her new job and people will see her as an entirely different person than the porn fans that only cared about watching her perform sex to satiate their perverse fantasies.
I think the image that will stick in my mind is that pic of her in a cap & gown. Very proud of you. A complete stranger but I'm proud. Do good!

If Katja lived in Ontario Canada, I would hire her in a heart beat in my small business as an administrator. She is a true role model for all the young girls in porn, or entering porn..and I have a lot of respect for what she has achieved. You don't have to be the biggest fan of her porn work, to appreciate her dedication to have and be more in life.
You don't speak for everyone! I wish that Katja does what makes her happy and I will remember here as the nice girl I happened to meet a few times. Jacco
Bound Gang Bangs is, as far as I remember the only scene Katja whined about. Never saw her say anything about Gangbang 4. Those two are probably my favorite scenes of her. Few others stand out for me too. Camelhoes because it's the first Katja's video I saw and fell in love instantly :) I Wanna Get Face Fucked 8 - the best deepthroat scene she have ever done. Manhandled 2 - licks ass as a pro.
Katja and Flower were the first asses to fall in love with. Katja has a very cute butt hole makes me droll everytime i see it and i want to lick it!

I will always remember Katja Kassin as the porn star that earned her degree and moved on to greater success. She's an example of how to use your porn career to improve your life, almost a model for other girls that enter porn without a plan.

Although the world may scoff and jest A life of service is best And happiness will always be To him (or you, Katja) who serves humanity. I wish you all the best, Katja.
You know it's kind of like when you go to a family reunion and this old aunt keeps talking about some anecdote form when you where a little kids. It's really annoying because you just want to be taken for who you are today. That doesn't mean you deny your past. At some point you just don't want to hear about it or talk about it anymore. I honestly have more exciting and meaningful things going on than being naked.
You keep using her real name and you will be banned from the board. Edited by - Captain Jack on 10/3/2014 6:54:10 PM
