"We are thrilled to see so many graduates walking the stage each semester to receive their diplomas," said Dr. Wendy Elmore, Provost and Executive Vice President. "None of this would be possible without the constant support of our dedicated faculty and staff. They are invested in the success of every student and beam with pride when a student they've taught turns their tassel on stage."
