2 Florida International University Letter from the President
Dear Graduate:
Welcome to FIU’s first-ever virtual commencement! To the Class of 2020, I congratulate each and every one of you on your remarkable resiliency in these unprecedented times. A few months ago, you were heading into the home stretch of your present academic journey, likely looking forward to striding across the stage of the Ocean Bank Convocation Center, shaking my hand as you accepted your degree, and celebrating with your loved ones your hard work and efforts in higher education. I was looking forward to it, too. You see, I draw strength and renew purpose from your incredible energy and success. And then the coronavirus crossed oceans and continents, creeping into our daily lives, forcing us to rethink how we celebrate commencement. I am immensely proud of the way you have handled the necessary changes to this time-honored tradition.
You are not alone in stepping up and leaning in to the COVID-19 pandemic. Panthers everywhere are pitching in. We’ve 3D-printed more than 3,000 face shields for healthcare workers on the frontlines, opened and operated a COVID-19 testing site, made available 28 ventilators to treat the growing number of coronavirus patients, and ensure our experts like Dr. Aileen Marty, Dr. Mary Jo Trepka and others are imparting their knowledge and guidance to our community. Your fellow Panthers are on the frontline of this epidemic, putting what they learned here at our FIU into daily use to save lives and offer comfort. I have been inspired by the collective intellectual prowess and deep empathy shown by members of the FIU family, and I hope you feel the same sense of pride that I do every time I hear of another Panther changing this world for the better.
But today is about celebrating your intellectual accomplishments. I want you to know that you and your fellow graduates fill me with that same sense of inspiration and pride. I cannot shake your hand or take a photo with you today, but there will come a day soon when I can. I look forward to celebrating together – in person – your accomplishments with an in-person commencement ceremony that is held specifically for you and your fellow Spring 2020 graduates. Details on that joyous occasion will be communicated in the coming weeks.
Until that day comes, my hope for you is that today’s virtual commencement fills you and your families with the deep sense of accomplishment and pride that you deserve! Know that Panthers everywhere are celebrating with you and welcoming you to the Panther alumni community. As the more than 200,000 graduates who have come before you have done, I know you will make us proud!
In the spirit of Blue and Gold,
Mark B. Rosenburg FIU President

Spring 2020 Commencement 15 The Honors College The Honors College provides highly motivated students with a cutting-edge education that complements their majors and prepares them to successfully compete for graduate school or employment. The heart of the college is its creative, active, and supportive community of outstanding students, superb teachers, accomplished researchers, and dedicated staff. Honors College scholars are admitted competitively into a transformational environment featuring problem-based experiential learning, active mentoring, and interdisciplinarity. The curriculum emphasizes critical, integrative, and creative thinking; team and independent research; oral and written communication; and integration of class work with the world outside the university. Students choose from an array of advanced multidisciplinary seminars that complement their major studies; study abroad; and/or extended research through the groundbreaking Advanced Research and Creativity in Honors (ARCH) program. The College also provides unique, focused tracks in pre-med/health professions, innovation/entrepreneurship, and law, with Early Assurance Programs in law, medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, and osteopathy. Students can live in the Honors College Building, taking advantage of its extensive Honors living-learning community and co-curricular opportunities, with access to high-tech innovation and video labs, as well as IT support. The College’s Career Center guarantees an internship to any student seeking one, and provides training in real-world social and business skills. Honors students embrace civic responsibility, and engage in service-research that directly benefits external communities, such as the Worlds Ahead Honors-Sweetwater Partnership.

18 Florida International University Phi Beta Kappa
Phi Beta Kappa (PBK) is America’s most prestigious academic honor society. Since 1776, Phi Beta Kappa has championed education, fostered freedom of thought, and recognized academic excellence. PBK honors the best and brightest liberal arts and sciences undergraduates from 286 top schools across the nation through a highly selective, merit-based invitation process. PBK advocates for the importance of liberal arts and sciences education and equips members with information and tools to thoughtfully engage in American society as leaders, volunteers, and citizens.
It is a distinct honor to be elected to PBK. Only 10% of U.S. colleges and universities have Phi Beta Kappa chapters and these chapters select a maximum of 10% of their liberal arts and sciences graduates to join. Election is based upon the evidence of broad cultural interests, scholarly achievement, and good character. We congratulate the following students for having been elected to the Epsilon Chapter of Phi Beta Kappa at FIU.

76 Florida International University Dear Panthers: Spring 2020
Congratulations and welcome to the Panther alumni family—we are nearly a quarter-million strong!
While your commencement experience is different than Panthers who have gone before you, what remains the same is that you have worked hard to get here and have a lot to be proud of. Let that pride propel you forward as you start or turbocharge your career using the degree you received today. Your family, your community and Panthers everywhere are rooting for you!
As an FIU alumnus you are automatically part of a strong and growing Panther network—the FIU Alumni Association. For starters, you have access to more than 300,000 local and national services, benefits, and discounts. But the real power of our network is what we can do together and how we can give back to our FIU.
The Alumni Association also helps fund student scholarships, provides professional development, engages in legislative advocacy, and sponsors many major events throughout the year.
Come visit the Alumni Association office anytime you are on campus. You’ll find us in MARC Suite 210 at the main campus. Learn more about your Alumni Association by visiting fiualumni.com, by following us on social media: @fiualumni and #fiualumni, or by calling 305-FIU-ALUM.
Remember that we are all ambassadors for FIU and pride in our FIU can show in many different ways: Wear your FIU gear, rock an FIU license plate, come to games, visit our museums, catch a show or a concert, mentor a student. Make a difference.
Go Panthers!
Michael A. Hernández ’04, MPA ’11 Sara M. DuCuennois President, Alumni Association Assistant Vice President of Alumni Relations
