Jenna's passion for design and sustainability is reflected in her active involvement with the Student Association of Interior Design, the Wentworth Sustainability Society, and the Dean's Student Council. Upon graduation, she plans to remain in Boston, where she aspires to work at an architectural design firm, contributing her skills and creativity to the vibrant design community.

She cherishes memories of going to Home Depot with her father, watching HGTV reruns, and playing The Sims with Nina. After graduating with a degree in Interior Design and gaining experience in design firms, Jennifer's passion for design intensified. Jennifer hopes to work in a design firm soon and wishes to travel to fuel her love for design and architecture further.

The academic procession and the regalia worn by the faculty, officers of the university, and students symbolize the continuing link between the modern American university and the founding of the great medieval universities in Europe.
The mace of the Institute symbolizes the authority invested in the president by the Board of Trustees and is borne by the president of the Faculty Senate.
The caps and gowns worn in the procession descend from medieval dress. The bachelor’s gown is a robe with long-pointed sleeves. Master’s gowns are arranged so that the arm emerges from a long sleeve through a slit at the wrist.
The mortarboard cap is the most common style and appeared in the 16th or 17th century. It usually has a black tassel attached. At Wentworth, the student wearing the red tassel is the Beatty Award recipient for having the highest grade point average of any graduate, and those wearing silver tassels are Alumni Award recipients being recognized for outstanding achievement.
Drawing inspiration from the hood on the habit worn by monks, the commencement hood demonstrates a student’s degree through its color:
Architecture – blue-violet
Business & Management – drab or tan
Engineering – orange
Industrial Design – dark brown
Interior Design – bilberry
Science – golden yellow
The lining of the hood, the portion most visible from the rear, indicates the institution awarding the degree — black and gold for Wentworth.
Solid-colored cords worn around the neck by students indicate that they graduated with honors. A gold cord indicates highest honors (summa cum laude), a red cord indicates high honors (magna cum laude), and a white cord indicates honors (cum laude). An orange cord represents the Engineering Honor Society; a navy and silver cord represents the Tri-Alpha Honor Society for first generation college students; and a red, white, and blue cord is worn by Veterans.
As part of the Commencement ceremony, international flags represent the countries and regions of our international students graduating today.
