In honor of Columbia’s diverse student community and complementing the school- and University-wide graduation ceremonies, we are proud to offer this and other Multicultural Graduation Celebrations, which provide a more intimate setting for students who self-identify in a variety of ways. These events invite community members to reflect on personal growth and community experiences that have impacted their time as students through to graduation. All undergraduate students are invited to participate in these celebrations.
