Greetings Advisers,

I hope this email finds you all well. My name is Paul Metellus and I am the staff co-chair of the Black Graduation and Kente Ceremony committee. We are excitedly preparing for this year's ceremony and we need your assistance in sharing the word with the Black graduates in your department.

All Black graduating students: undergraduate, graduate, and professional students, should have received the below email inviting them to register to participate in this year's ceremony, which will take place on Sunday, June 2, 2024 at 7:00pm. Our registration deadline to participate in this year's ceremony is Friday, May 10, 2024.

New This Year:  This year's Black Graduation and Kente Ceremony is open to students on all three UW campuses - making this year's ceremony a tri-campus event for the first time. Advisers on the UW Bothell and Tacoma campus, please share this information with your students as well, as they would've received the below email inviting them to register.

If you or your students have any questions about the ceremony, please have them reach out to uwblackg at uw.edu<mailto:uwblackg at uw.edu>.

The Black Graduation Ceremony is a pre-commencement celebration to honor African and African American students who through unyielding determination have successfully completed an undergraduate or graduate degree from the University of Washington. The Ceremony is representative of African and African American culture and heritage, embraces the value of community and scholarship, and culminates with a Kente Stole presentation.



New this year:  This ceremony is now open to all Black graduates from ALL three University of Washington campuses! That is correct, UW Tacoma and UW Bothell students are invited to participate in this year's ceremony!



This is a Celebration for Graduates to be recognized for their accomplishments and provided an opportunity to honor significant people who have helped them achieve their goal. Students are honored together in one setting and their families also get the opportunity to celebrate their hard work and dedication.
