Degrees To Be Conferred in May; Celebration Date To Be Announced Later

Helen Henrichs

Commencement will be held later this year, President Alison Davis-Blake announced, as Bentley and the global community continue to take measures to protect our society against the spread of COVID-19. With increased travel restrictions and state and federal orders against large gatherings, the decision was made to postpone Commencement, Davis-Blake said in an announcement to students, faculty, staff and parents.

The university will announce the new date in the coming weeks. All degrees will still be conferred in May, so students can start jobs or continue their academic journeys.
