Congratulations to the over 8,000 University of Arizona students receiving their degrees this week! Enjoy celebrating with your friends, family and fellow graduates. We are excited to welcome you to the Alumni family as Wildcats for Life!

If you’re like me, you’re getting excited about our upcoming graduation. I am most looking forward to celebrating the past four years I’ve spent at the UA with my best friends by my side. Graduation week is a time to get together with the people we care about and celebrate the milestones and our accomplishments!

After graduation, I am moving to Newport Beach, California to work for E&J Gallo Winery as a part of its Sales Leadership Development Program. I also plan to pursue photography and hope to capture engagements and weddings! I am looking forward to perfect weather year-round and getting to do what I love. 

My advice to current and future Wildcats is to find a reason to care, be passionate, get up in the morning and put your time into. Whether that’s an organization, a hobby, a person or a career. If you’re still looking for that thing to care about, it’s out there and it’s worth finding!

I’d also like to encourage my fellow graduates to leave your impact on this university by making a Class Gift today! You can give $20.23 to your college or a program that’s important to you. If you have already supported the Class Gift, thank you.

Enjoy these last couple of weeks and CONGRATULATIONS!

Bear Down and Thank You,

Wildcat for Life

We're excited to celebrate your graduation one month from today at Arizona Stadium! With your Class Gift of $15 or more, your name will be listed with your fellow donors during the pre-show at Commencement. Make your gift by midnight on Tuesday, April 18 to see your name in lights!

For our graduates who are part of Greek life, make your Class Gift of $20.23 to the Greek Senior Legacy Fund and you will get a special cord to wear at the event. Pick yours up at the Fraternity & Sorority Programs Office after making your gift! 

Thanks to the Seniors from Alpha Phi, Gamma Alpha Omega, Kappa Alpha Order, Kappa Delta Chi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Sigma Nu and Sigma Phi Epsilon for supporting the Greek Senior Legacy Fund with their giving already.
