Student stories wanted for commencement

Commencement ceremonies at Texas Woman’s University traditionally have included stories of some students’ paths to graduation highlighted in the chancellor’s speeches. While our December drive-thru graduation events won’t feature the usual speeches, there still are ways to feature some remarkable 2020 graduates on the Commencement 2020 website and in social media.

If you have a wonderful story to share about an August or December graduate — accomplishments, success despite obstacles, connection to our strategic plan (i.e., veterans, women’s leadership, health), etc. — email twunews@twu.edu with the student’s name, email address, and a sentence or two about what makes this student stand out. The achievements of these students do not have to be related to COVID-19; we are looking for a variety of stories, including those. (May graduates are not included in this call, as many great stories about them were shared previously.)

Marketing & Communication will review the information submitted and will contact those graduates to be featured. You do not need to contact the student ahead of time.
