Convocation 2026. 🍊

Tears, laughs, hugs and a story worth telling: the Newhouse #Classof2026 made it official.

Featured speaker John Sykes '77, president of entertainment enterprises for iHeartMedia, chairman of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation and cofounder of MTV, challenged graduates to embrace what lies ahead: "Be the first one to get there in the morning and be the last one to leave … because I promise you, you will be noticed." 

From the JMA Wireless Dome to the Quad, our graduates celebrated with the faculty, mentors, family and friends who helped get them here. So many moments to remember.

Congratulations, graduates! We can't wait to see what's next.
