Commencement 2011

Tomorrow is a big day in the history of Western New England. We will be holding our final commencement as a college tomorrow beginning at 2:00 pm. The ceremony will be held in the Athletic Healthful Living Center and we anticipate handing out about 700 bachelor's degrees, four doctoral degrees, and an honorary degree.

The commencement address will be given by political humorist Jimmy Tingle who has been on shows such as "60 Minutes", "The Tonight Show", and "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" among others. Tingle will also receive an Honorary Doctor of Human Letters degree from President Anthony S. Caprio.

From an Admissions standpoint, we are proud to report that one of our office's associates will be delivering the valedictorian address. Senior Kelli Gustavson will be addressing her classmates, school officials, and families. This is a tremendous honor for Kelli and we were very fortunate to be able to work with her during her time here at WNE. We are proud of all of our graduates and wish them the best of luck in the future!
