Dear {{my.preferred name}},
May kept the Night Owl community moving! We celebrated hundreds of graduates during our Spring Virtual Commencement, connected with alumni at casual meetups in Denver and Nashville, supported military and veteran career conversations in El Paso, and joined Team WGU in Cleveland for a morning of service and community impact. Thank you to everyone who showed up, logged in, cheered, connected, and helped make May a memorable month for WGU alumni.

Featured Event Recap
WGU Virtual Commencement | May 16
WGU commencement season doesn't only happen on stages across the country—we also proudly host virtual commencements for graduates who prefer to celebrate from wherever they are. On May 16, 828 graduates participated in WGU’s Spring Virtual Commencement, representing 48 states and U.S. territories, with graduates ranging in age from 20 to 64.
The class included Night Owls from all four WGU schools, with 54% earning master’s degrees and 46% earning bachelor’s degrees. Congratulations to our newest alumni—we’re proud to celebrate your achievement and welcome you into the WGU alumni community!
