(Laredo, Texas)-In a video message to Class of 2020 candidates , Texas A&M International University (TAMIU) president Dr. Pablo Arenaz announced the University’s plans to honor Spring and Summer candidates for graduation in Commencement Exercises tentatively scheduled for Thursday, Aug. 13, 2020 at the Sames Auto Arena.
Acknowledging the University’s challenging Spring Semester, Dr. Arenaz praised students’ perseverance.
“This has been the most challenging semester that we have ever shared here at TAMIU …but we are persevering… Your resilience has been awesome. For you, the Senior Class of 2020, our 50th Anniversary Class, you have seen your last semester delivered online and the traditions and celebrations that have always framed the senior year experience either cancelled and postponed. We know this has been deeply disappointing for you — as it has been for us,” he said.
“So, I think we’re all due for some good news and a chance to be together. And so, I am happy to announce that we will gather together to celebrate your success and your personal perseverance with Commencement Exercises Thursday, Aug. 13 at 4 p.m. at the Sames Auto Arena.
“We want Spring and Summer 2020 graduates to come together in a special Commencement Exercise to celebrate your remarkable accomplishment. You’ve completed your studies here, and will get to wish colleagues and friends well…and move on to new experiences. As part of our 50th Anniversary year, we hope this Celebration will be something you’ll always remember,” he added.
