Multicultural Graduation Celebrations

Congratulations to the Class of 2025!

Multicultural graduation celebrations bring together students of similar identity to celebrate their academic accomplishments. The celebrations are open to all students and their guests regardless of race, sex, color, ethnicity or national origin.

These celebrations do not replace the standard University commencement ceremonies. They are additional celebrations smaller in scale scheduled at times that allow students to participate in multiple graduation ceremonies. In addition to our University Commencement Ceremonies for your Academic Department(s), you are also invited to participate in our Multicultural Graduation Celebrations, which will take place on:
