Nearly 1000 graduates will be earning degrees during Commencement this Saturday, May 8. The event begins at 1 p.m. on Fiske Quad.
Besides granting associate’s, bachelor’s, and master’s degrees to our illustrious students, the College will also honor Dr. Carol Geary Schneider, president of the Association of American Colleges and Universities (AAC&U), with an honorary Doctor of Humanities degree and past Alumni Association Board President David Gagne with the 2010 Granite State Award.
On Friday, May 7, the College will give special recognition to all those students who have excelled in scholarship and leadership or earned undergraduate academic honors (with a GPA of 3.5 or better). That all takes place during the Spring Honors Convocation at 4 p.m. in the Redfern Arts Center on Brickyard Pond.
I want to thank all of the “Bigs” this year, especially the graduating seniors for all of their dedication and the time that they spent with their “Littles”! I wish you all luck in the next chapter of your lives.
