Sending off the Class of 2022
During Commencement Weekend on May 13-15, the Class of 2022 was recognized for its outstanding work over the past four years, both in the classroom and in the community. A quick downpour did little to dampen the mood of the assembled crowd during the Commencement ceremony. Congresswoman Stephanie Murphy shared a memorable address, telling the new graduates, “You are now ready to Do Great Work for your community, your country, and your world.” Additional speakers included President Bob Iuliano, Phoebe Doscher ’22, and President of the Alumni Board of Directors Brian Orsinger ’01.
With NCAA Division III Championship playoff games taking place during Commencement Weekend, both the men’s and women’s lacrosse teams took part in a Special Commencement Ceremony on May 12. Eighteen student-athletes received their diplomas from President Iuliano in front of a packed crowd of family, friends, professors, and more inside Kline Theater.
