Letter from the President

Congratulations, graduates! The faculty, staff, and administration of George Mason University are excited to join your families and friends and other special guests today at our fifty-fourth annual Commencement.

You’re earning a degree from one of the nation’s top research universi- ties and one of the most diverse universities in the country. Because of your hard work, you are prepared for success.

But that’s only part of the story. Your Mason journey has been unlike that of any graduating class in the university’s history. You’ve dealt with tremendous adversity over the past year and displayed a drive and resilience that will serve you in all aspects of life.

When we needed you to be flexible in your mode of education to stay on track to complete your degree, you adjusted. When we needed you to be leaders in executing our Safe Return to Campus plans for the fall and spring semesters, you led.

You’ve met every challenge thrown in your path. For these and so many reasons, this class—my first spring graduating class as Mason president—will always be special to me.

About one-third of Mason graduates in recent years have been in the Gregory Washington first generation of their families to earn a four-year degree. For our President, George Mason University first-generation graduates today, congratulations on making family history and inspiring others. You exemplify the inclusive excellence we strive for at Mason. We discover and develop talent and provide the opportunity for that talent to grow and flourish.

Today, all of our graduates join a distinguished group of more than 200,000 Mason alumni. They, too, take tremendous pride in your suc- cess and look forward to hiring you and working with you as valued members of the Mason Nation.

Stay connected to this place where you learned so much about your- self. Nurture the relationships you established here. Come back to campus for homecomings and other events. And, of course, keep us apprised of your accomplishments as professionals and as citizens. We’ll be watching.

And remember: Once a Patriot, always a Patriot!

About the University Mace George Mason University formal ceremonies begin with the entrance of the university mace, which features Mason’s seal highlighting freedom and learning and is carried in the procession by the lead uni- versity marshal. The tradition of the mace derives from medieval times when a bodyguard held a mace during ceremonial functions with the intention of protecting the royal or dignitary. The mace symbolizes the university’s governing authority and is present only when the president and the Board of Visitors are in attendance.
