Graduation

Dear Post University Graduating Student:

I hope you and your family are doing well. This spring semester has been challenging for all of us, but especially for our Class of 2020.  I am extremely proud of how each of you have successfully navigated the challenges, while showing your resilience and positive attitude.

Back in March, I made the decision to postpone our 130^th Commencement.  That decision was made with a heavy heart, but very mindful of the realities of the coronavirus pandemic and our public safety obligations. Today, writing about alternative options for graduation is difficult. While we are leaning toward holding a special ceremony, hopefully in the fall, we recognize there are many uncertainties at this time. We know that we may need to adapt our plans to meet any new social distance procedures issued by Connecticut Governor Lamont.

The month of May traditionally marks the culmination of academic achievement; please know all of us at the University are thinking of you. Just like you, I am missing those events that make spring so special on our campus. I want to reassure you that we recognize how important Commencement is to you, your classmates, your family and friends. We will keep you updated about our plans and you can stay current by visiting this page.

I look forward to the day when we can welcome our graduating students and their families back to campus to celebrate the successful culmination of their sacrifices and their hard work. Please stay safe and healthy.

Sincerely yours,
John L. Hopkins
CEO and President of Post University
