We were thrilled to be able to welcome many of our graduating students back to campus in May for a MAAS commencement ceremony. We also hosted a live streamed, virtual graduation for families and students who could not attend in person.
The in-person MAAS commencement took place in Red Square on the afternoon of May 22. CCAS Director Joseph Sassoon (Top) welcomed students and faculty. In keeping with tradition, MAAS Director Fida Adely said a few personal remarks about each graduate (Left with student Mohan Chen). Students gathered on the steps of Healy Hall after the ceremony for a group photo (Far left).
Earlier that same day, the class of 2021 gathered for a virtual commencement (Below left) while family and friends watched on YouTube. Guest speakers included SFS Dean Joel Hellman and CCAS Board Chair and MAAS alum Laurie Fitch. The floor was opened to students, who used their time as a platform to express solidarity with the people of Palestine and condemn the attacks on Gaza.
