Lavender Graduation

Commencement Schedule and Graduation Celebrations Lavender graduation provides an opportunity to recognize the accomplishments of our LGBTQIA+ graduates and to celebrate their contributions to our campus in the areas of community service, leadership, and academic success.

This celebration allows them to be acknowledged wholly without erasure which may not be possible for them at general commencement. Lavender graduation makes LGBTQIA+ folks more visible to the community at large and promotes college-going culture for future generations of LGBTQIA students who may not otherwise see themselves as strong candidates for higher education. Highlighting their accomplishments can create a sense of belonging amongst future graduates who attend the graduation in support of their friends. Campus Location: Student Community Center.
