THE NEXT CHAPTER

The final members of the Class of 2025 are on their way.

December 18, 2025 at 5:55pm


In anticipation of a new year, some 5,000 Panthers look forward to new careers and new lives. The final members of the Class of 2025 join the 10,000 who graduated earlier this year. Together they represent the next generation of leaders, creators and changemakers who have committed to use their talents and knowledge to make an impact across science, technology and the arts.

During the eight ceremonies this week, graduates walked the commencement stage as family and friends cheered them on. Relive the excitement and feel the promise of the moment in our pictorial tribute to those who make us proud.
