Proud families and professors alike cheered on the nearly 700 graduating members in the Class of 2022 at the University’s 201st Commencement exercises, Sunday, May 22.

Two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, New York Times critic at large, and co-host of the podcast Still Processing Wesley Morris will provide remarks at �°IJʿ������’s 201st commencement, Sunday, May 22. 

Students, faculty, and staff gathered in Memorial Chapel on Tuesday morning for a vigil of solidarity with the people of Ukraine. The gathering was one of several moments during which �°IJʿ������ community members have joined together to show their support for victims of the invasion since it began on Feb. 24.

�°IJʿ������ has received an all-time record number of applications for admission.

The upward trend follows on the heels of last year’s 6.4% increase in ED applications and historic 104% increase in total applications.

Join �°IJʿ������’s 17th President Brian W. Casey as he returns to the podcast for the first time since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

President Joe Biden this week labeled the deaths of more than a million Armenians killed at the hands of Ottoman Turks in 1915 as genocide, a public recognition that �°IJʿ������ English professor and Pulitzer Prize winner Peter Balakian has urged for decades.
