Description
The purpose of the Black Graduation Celebration is to provide a
celebration that is representative of Black/African American and
African tradition, heritage, culture, and legacy. We want to encourage
students to set their sights on the completion of their chosen majors,
and as a recruitment tool to motivate others to pursue advanced
degrees at Grand Valley State University after seeing the success of
their peers.
Over the years, Black Graduation Celebration ceremonies have
become an essential expression of a rite of passage at many colleges
and universities throughout the nation and it is our hope that
celebration will serve as a tool to encourage academic excellence and
community responsibility.
This event also appears on the main events calendar.
