LSU to Celebrate Summer Graduates on Friday, Aug. 7

08/05/2020
BATON ROUGE – On Friday, Aug. 7, LSU will honor more than 500 summer graduates with a virtual graduation celebration. Join the graduation watch party on the LSU Facebook page at 10 a.m. CDT to wish the newest class of proud Tiger alumni congratulations and appreciation for their hard work and continued determination through trying times.

Following the formal program, a unique live display of LSU’s newest graduates’ names will be posted in Tiger Stadium. Details about the timing for each college’s graduates and how to access the live feed will be released as the event approaches.

LSU has created a Graduation Celebration webpage, where graduates can find suggestions for ways to celebrate from a distance with loved ones, can download virtual campus backgrounds, listen to the official celebration playlist, find the perfect graduation Giphy, decorate a mortar board for Instagram, follow along with #LSUGrad, and much more. Visit lsu.edu/celebration for more information and details.

All summer graduates will have the opportunity to walk during a future LSU commencement. As usual, graduates’ names will be listed on the LSU commencement website by hometown for newspapers to pull graduates’ names from their areas. The lists will be available on Aug. 7 on lsu.edu/commencement.
