Congratulations, Grads: A Commencement Collection
Commencement time is approaching for the class of 2024, and with it comes a lot of complex feelings— Elation you’ve achieved something great! Relief your classes are over! Panic about what comes next!?
To help ease your mind and let you know a smooth graduation is definitely doable, we’ve assembled Pulse@ChathamU stories from the past few years on everything Commencement, from traditions and exit interviews with seniors past to recent alumni profiles (to help show you post-graduation success is right around the corner). Read on, and best of luck to all our graduates!
Traditions and “So long, Seniors” Interviews
Read up on beloved Chatham traditions like Capstone projects and Lavender & Multicultural Graduation, or peruse the advice left for us by exiting seniors in recent years.
Recent Graduates
Because if they can do it, so can you! Gain inspiration from our “Recent Grad 101” series and other interviews with freshly graduated alumni.
On the Job
Though career development starts on day one at Chatham, we figured some extra advice around searching for, landing, and evaluating your first gig after graduation couldn’t hurt!
Senior to Senior Series
And of course, what would a Commencement collection be without shouting out this year’s seniors? Senior student employees interviewed their classmates for this series on their time at Chatham and what they hope will come next.
