After two semesters limited to virtual celebrations, ѿappUniversity at Ashtabula will hold its 72nd Commencement Ceremony in person on Friday, May 14, 2021 at SPIRE in Geneva, Ohio, beginning at 7 p.m.
Approximately 100 graduates will be recognized at the event, which will have limited capacity in SPIRE’s indoor track and field building. “Flashes Safe Eight” and CDC safety guidelines will be followed.
“Commencement is always a special evening to celebrate such an important milestone in our students’ lives and I’m so pleased we can celebrate in person with our graduates and their families,” said Susan J. Stocker, Ph.D., dean and chief administrative officer at ѿappAshtabula. “Completing a degree is a major accomplishment, but to have completed a degree during a pandemic – and all the challenges that presented – is nothing short of incredible.”
“We’re graduating students in a wide range of in-demand fields,” Stocker added. “Especially a good number of graduates in our nursing program who will help alleviate the regional and national nursing shortage.”
The event will be streamed live and archived to the campus YouTube Channel at .
