This week, approximately 4,300 undergraduate and graduate students from Georgia Southern University’s Statesboro, Armstrong and Liberty campuses received associate, baccalaureate, masters, specialist and doctoral degrees in five Spring 2022 Commencement ceremonies.

Georgia Southern President Kyle Marrero welcomed the graduates and their guests to the ceremonies, held at the Allen E. Paulson Stadium in Statesboro on May 9, 10 and 11 and at the Savannah Convention Center on May 13.

“Graduates, I don’t need to tell you about your unique college journey, which has been challenging for all of us,” said Marrero at the opening ceremony. “I am very proud of how together we have persevered. And today, you deserve great recognition. This is a momentous day for Georgia Southern University and for all of you. You are part of history.” 

Before concluding, Marrero asked the graduates to applaud their vast network of support, including family, friends and Georgia Southern’s faculty, the “hallmark of the University.”
