Twirls, embraces, cheers and tears of joy were part of the celebration as members of Kent State's spring Class of 2024 walked the stage at Karamu Ya Wahitimu/Celebración De Los Graduados on May 8.
Hosted by the E. Timothy Moore Student Multicultural Center, this pre-commencement celebration and final Rites of Passage ceremony celebrates the accomplishments of all graduating African American, Native American, Latinx, Hispanic and Multiracial undergraduate and graduate students.
A senior speaker provides remarks before students are recognized and bestowed with a cultural stole by a faculty member in their respective college.
