Class of 2008
With the Vatican City as our backdrop, the Class of 2008 continues
the twelve-year tradition of sharing their accomplishments in the
heart of the Eternal City.
The ceremony includes an address, a student speaker, the
awarding of honorary degrees to a number of distinguished
individuals and the conferring of degrees and certificates upon the
graduates. Each graduate is recognized by name and walks on stage
to receive a diploma case.
In addition to the Commencement ceremony, the University
welcomes the friends and families of the Class of 2008 to attend
the Baccalaureate Liturgy at 4:30 p.m. and the reception
immediately following the Commencement ceremony.
