Rutgers will hold its virtual university-wide commencement on Sunday, May 31 at 2 p.m.
From the university website:
Rutgers University will stream a virtual celebration on May 31 to honor the 2020 graduates of Rutgers-New Brunswick and Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences during a pandemic that required remote instruction through the final weeks of the spring semester.
President Robert Barchi will preside over and confer degrees during Rutgers Universitys 254th Anniversary Commencement celebration, which will feature award-winning NBC News anchor Lester Holt delivering an address to the graduates from his home studio. Holt also will receive an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree.
Commencement is an important milestone, not only for our students and their families, but for our faculty and staff, our alumni, and for the Rutgers community as a whole, Barchi said. In this time of uncertainty, celebrating graduation is more important than ever, because it brings us together to recognize achievements with a sense of pride and admiration, even amidst social distancing.
