Lavender Graduation

Each April, LGBTQ Student Services celebrates the contributions of all gender and sexual minorities that are graduating by hosting Lavender Graduation. During this ceremony, each graduate is presented to the audience and receives a certificate and a rainbow tassel to wear at Commencement. The graduating students also have the chance to select an inspiring speaker to provide an annual address and the LGBTQ Advocacy Award is presented. The ceremony ends with a nice reception.

Students can apply to participate in Lavender Graduation at Grad Fair which is held annually in March or via the various forms of publicity.
