About the Latinx Graduation Celebration
The Latinx Graduation Celebration was created to honor the achievement of Latinx graduates, and the contributions their families and friends have made during their education. Movimiento Estudiantil Chicanx de Aztlán (MEChA) created this event in 1978 to encourage Latinos to pursue higher education. This diverse and intimate English/Spanish-bilingual ceremony has flourished, and now includes Latinx and non-Latinx students.
