Every fall semester, Southeastern honors its Golden Graduates, those who have reached their 50-year graduation anniversary. This past Dec. the University was proud to welcome its newest group, the class of ’72, to the Golden Grad family during a special reunion weekend.

On Dec. 9, the day before Winter Commencement, 43 of these alumni enjoyed lunch and mingling with both old friends and new acquaintances. A breakfast and second get-together, with guest President John Crain, was held the next morning before a longstanding Southeastern tradition: the leading of the Commencement procession by the University’s distinguished Golden Grads.

This annual tradition will continue on Dec. 8-9, ’23, in celebration of the class of ’73 and all who came before. If you graduated in or prior to ’73, be on the lookout for more announcements from the Alumni Association about this year’s event.
