To Our Graduates


While Spring 2020 Commencement had to be postponed, we still wanted to recognize that this weekend marks a special occasion in the lives of you, our students. In this transformative time, you have made new friendships, gained a valuable education and discovered your purpose. Despite current circumstances, now is a time to celebrate the obstacles you have overcome, the sacrifices you have made, and the rigorous coursework you have completed. You should be very proud. We are very proud.

We hope to celebrate with you in person soon. Until then, we want to share with you these messages of congratulations, encouragement and support. You can also download a customizable 18x24 yard sign or 8.5x11 sign to print to celebrate!
