Commencement Celebration

Fall 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic turned the world upside down in many ways. That is certainly true for the Class of 2020, whose graduation was postponed over one year. In a strange twist of events, AUB’s 151st Commencement Exercises for the Class of 2020 actually took place a whole month after AUB held its 152nd Commencement Exercises for the Class of 2021.

But the Class of 2020 did–finally–have their moment, with an in-person ceremony on the Green Field held on October 8, and a virtual ceremony held online a week later for those who could not attend in person.
