Convocation Spring 2025

Our students will never fully understand how proud we are to watch them walk across that stage and receive their degrees. We support them throughout their journey and provide guidance when necessary, but ultimately, it is up to them. And we couldn't be happier to see them succeed. Find out which students crossed the stage this Spring. 

Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Philosophy Rolf George passed away on April 28th, 2025.
