Do you know that GHC’s Class of 2015 is the first to nominate fellow graduating students to speak at graduation? Please take a moment to share this information with our graduating class and remind them of the approaching nomination deadline:

Thursday, March 12th

If you know a graduating student who you think meets the speaker eligibility requirements outlined below, you are encouraged to nominate that student by emailing an endorsement to SpeakerNomination@highlands.edu .

The student eligibility requirements are:

• Must be a graduate of the 2014-15 academic year (in line to graduate by May 2015).
• Must have a minimum adjusted GPA of 3.0.
• Must be nominated by a GHC faculty, staff or graduating student of the Class of 2015.
• Must demonstrate personal commitment (education, integrity, diversity, inclusiveness, leadership, cooperation, human rights, justice, etc.).
• Must have a college record free of suspension, probation or other disciplinary actions.
• Should show involvement in community or campus activities/student life.

Nomination letters of endorsement should be submitted to SpeakerNomination@highlands.edu . A committee will then review nominations collected from all GHC locations to make the selections for both opening and closing remarks representing the Class of 2015.
