Dear Students and Colleagues,
It’s that time of year again—graduation time. Congratulations to all of our graduates as you celebrate the completion of your degree—or degrees. We have a lot to celebrate, as you will see below.
For those of you who are graduating, I hope to see you for Commencement at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum. Also, a senior celebration lunch will be held on Friday, May 19. If you are a graduating senior, please RSVP to Lori Cary, MBA '20, to enjoy lunch and celebrate your achievements with faculty and classmates. For those of you who are not graduating, I look forward to seeing you back on campus in the fall. Mark your calendars for our annual welcome social on Wednesday, September 13.
I wish all of our students, faculty and staff a safe and enjoyable summer.
Regards,
|

March Meet and Greet With Faculty
Who says meet and greets can only take place at the beginning of the academic year? It’s always a good time to meet new people, and the strong turnout at the Willumstad School’s meet-and-greet event on March 27 is evidence of this. Thank you to the Willumstad Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging Council for planning this event.
