You are invited to celebrate the culmination of all the hard work and dedication of our students at Austin Community College District’s (ACC) 2024 Spring Commencement Ceremony. This semester, more than 3,000 students are invited to walk the stage. Additionally, with more than 3,700 students invited to fall commencement in December, the academic year total is more than 6,700 graduates. 

This event marks the college’s official 50th commencement, with the first ceremony taking place in May 1974.

“This is my favorite event of every semester. I am encouraged by the success and admire our students’ strength, brilliance, and perseverance to get here,” says ACC Chancellor Dr. Russell Lowery-Hart. “The future of learning and workforce is at a community college because we provide the skills you need to get a career and earn a family-sustaining wage. Our job is to help these students finish what they started to get there. It fills me with immense pride knowing we are already seeing the work pay off to support more students completing what they started and taking those next steps.” 

All faculty and staff are encouraged to attend commencement to help cheer on our graduates. You can also show some virtual love to our spring 2024 grads on our online message board below, which will be shown during the commencement ceremony.
