About the Ceremony
The ceremony will include nursing student speakers reflecting on the program as they embark on a career in this field. Along with honoring the entire class, students receiving awards will also be recognized. Tri-C President Alex Johnson and Dean of Nursing Wendy Batch-Wilson will share remarks.

During the current situation, the College wants to make sure we recognize the exceptional accomplishments of our nursing graduates through a virtual ceremony. Our Spring 2020 class will also be invited to participate in our winter in-person pinning event when we hope to again celebrate safely together.
