Celebrating African American Student Achievement
You are invited to participate in the PCC Black Grad Celebration! Is your last term in Spring or Summer 2023? Are you transferring to a university or moving into the world of work? Please join us for the Black Grad Celebration.
Pasadena’s City College’s Black Grad Celebration complements the campus’ Commencement Exercises by acknowledging and celebrating African American students and their families in a way that is culturally relevant.
This event is free! We will honor our graduating students with music, performers, speakers, and a certificate of achievement.
