Registration is now open for graduating seniors from December 2019 through December 2020. Anyone is welcome to attend the event and support the graduating students.

The ceremony will include scholarship recognition, campus awards, and acknowledgment of significant supporters. Graduates will receive a rainbow tassel, stole, and graduation certificate.
