The College of St. Scholastica will celebrate the undergraduate and graduate Class of 2024 with commencement on Saturday, May 11, in the Amsoil Arena located at the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center (DECC).

The in-person celebration will be a traditional, seated ceremony with unlimited guest seating. The ceremony will also be live-streamed and available on the college’s YouTube.

All graduating students of any religious or spiritual tradition are welcome to attend Commencement Mass at 9 a.m. at the Mitchell Auditorium.

The doors open for guests at the Amsoil Arena for guests at noon. Graduating students will check in at 1 p.m. The ceremony begins at 2 p.m. and will last approximately 2 hours. All graduating students are asked to stay for the entirety of the ceremony out of respect for others.

There will be a reception held immediately following the ceremony in the Lake Superior Ballroom of the DECC. Graduates and their families will have the opportunity to meet and greet faculty, adjuncts and the Board of Trustees at the reception.

Dr. Barbara McDonald, president of St. Scholastica, shared her highest congratulations to the graduates: “We are honored to be sending you out into your chosen professions fully equipped as thoughtful leaders, sharpened and sensitized by the liberal arts, and well-prepared to serve and transform the world. You have met this mission with heart, mind and soul. And you now become part of a remarkable group of St. Scholastica alumni who are making positive differences in the communities they serve.”
