Dear Friend,
Adelphi University’s 128th Commencement ceremony was filled with moments of joy and pride. More than 2,000 students received their degrees, equipped with the resilience needed to succeed in today’s ever-changing career landscape. As our newest alumni embark on their next journey, I know they will make a profound impact on the world as innovators and leaders.
I’m thrilled to share inspiring and memorable moments from our celebration of the Class of 2024. Hear from our campus leaders as they offer words of wisdom and encouragement to our graduates. Learn more about our exceptional graduate and undergraduate classes. And meet our esteemed honorary degree recipients, Eduardo Vilaro ’85 and Patrick O’Shaughnessy, DO, MBA ’13, as they tell their remarkable life stories.
I’m also proud to share the breaking news that Adelphi has won all three of the NE10 Athletic Conference Presidents’ Cups for 2023–2024! This marked the first year the conference awarded an overall champion, a men’s champion and a women’s champion, and Adelphi University Athletics excelled across the board. Congratulations to all our student-athletes, coaches and athletics staff on an incredible year that elevated the Panthers to become the best program in the conference.
I look forward to keeping you updated as Adelphi continues to create a bright future for our students and our community. Have a great summer!
All the best,
