Forty-Seventh Annual Honors Convocation

View Monroe Community College’s 2023 Honors Convocation Ceremony (Video)

I wish to extend my sincere gratitude to you for your role in making the Forty-seventh Annual Honors Convocation a wonderful success! As you know, this ceremony celebrates MCC’s brightest scholars and is a very meaningful recognition of the hard work of students, faculty, and staff.

However, it cannot happen without the planning and work of a talented team of organizers. Your time, energy, enthusiasm, and creativity make each year unique, meaningful and possible.

I want to thank the 2023 Convocation Team. The deans’ assistants worked collaboratively and effectively to make this a very smooth process. Thanks to all of the offices that contributed their assistance in a variety of ways and a special thanks to the marshals who organized the magnificent processional and logistics of the ceremony. 

On behalf of all of the academic deans, we appreciate your work. Thank you for making the Forty-seventh Honors Convocation a wonderful success.
