Commencement

Commencement is the launching pad for our mission. As students walk across the stage, it symbolizes they are now ready “for a life of faith and service in the church and society.” As this chapter of what it looks like to be a Raven at Anderson University closes, we’re looking forward to celebrating with you — everything you’ve accomplished and everything that’s to come!
