SEAS Celebration 2006

SEAS honored its 486 graduates at the 2006 SEAS Celebration on Saturday evening, May 20th. With a full complement of parents, siblings, spouses, children, and other relatives and friends present to honor their accomplishments, the engineers and computer scientists individually walked across the stage at the Smith Center to receive their diplomas, handshakes, and congratulations from Dean Tong and the SEAS faculty.

The ceremony included the presentation of 28 student awards to recognize various forms of student achievement; the Engineer Alumni Achievement Award, which was presented to Mr. Gary Bard (MS '63); the keynote address by Dr. David Karlgaard (D.Sc. '74); a student speech by Nazanin Azizian, the winner of the SEAS Celebration speech competition; and the recognition of each graduate.

After the ceremony, graduates, their guests, and SEAS faculty, staff, and alumni, gathered at the Marvin Center for a post-Celebration reception.
