Asian American Resource Center’s Graduation Recognition Celebration

In honor of the achievements and accomplishments of our graduating students, the Asian American Resource Center proudly hosts the AARC Leadership and Graduation Recognition Celebration. This annual spring tradition celebrates our graduates through congratulatory messages from university administrators, faculty, staff and alumni.

Reflecting the rich cultural traditions celebrated in Asian American, Pacific Islander, DESI and Asian international communities, this event includes leadership awards for students, certificates of achievement for all participating graduates-to-be, honor cords for individuals earning a 3.0 GPA or higher, and stoles for students who have completed the Boey Honors Program.

The event also features performances and small tokens of appreciation for all graduates and their families.

The event is open to all.

This pre-commencement celebration recognizes student leaders and graduates who have completed an undergraduate or graduate degree. The ceremony is free to students and guests.

For questions, please contact Michelle Bringas at mbringas@niu.edu.

This program will be live-streamed and recorded.
