  • RVU Class of 2020 Commencement Program (PDF)
    Mission Statement Rocky Vista University provides quality healthcare education while inspiring students to serve with compassion, integrity, and excellence. Class of 2020 Commencement Friday, First of May, Two-Thousand Twenty Letter from the President To Rocky Vista University’s Class of 2020, This year’s Commencement is dedicated to our students and faculty as they played, and continue to play, a significant role in the COVID-19 Pandemic. Not since 1918 has our Country’s medical professionals been challenged by such a far-reaching pandemic. It challenges us, as a graduate healthcare University, to insist on the most advanced educational technologies and curricular emphasis, while never forgetting our commitment to the healing power and the importance of body, mind, and spirit. We are proud of the stellar performance and eagerness of the Class of 2020 to launch into the next phase of medical education. You came to RVU with a sense of purpose, a desire to make a difference, and today, I remind you that your journey is never complete. The faculty and staff have provided you with the tools for success and wish you every joy and happiness a life of service can bring. Today is a day of gratitude: gratitude to your family, friends, and faculty—all of whom share in your pride and accomplishment. To our medical school graduates, the people that are not here are your future patients, the individuals and families you will be privileged to touch. The “DO Touch” encompasses compassion, caring, and expertise in your chosen specialty. Every day, we hear tragic sto- ries of families devastated by not being with their loved ones at their hour of need; this sorrow will reside in their hearts and minds forever.
