More than 50 graduates received their bachelor’s degrees at Penn State Brandywine’s fall commencement ceremony on Saturday, Dec. 18 in the campus gymnasium.
“Commencement is one of the greatest days in the life of a university. Commencement is also a memorable day in the lives of all our graduates,” Chancellor Marilyn J. Wells told the newly minted Penn State graduates and their guests. “Each generation has its defining moments, and for you, completing your world-class education, undergraduate research, community service, sustainability projects and internships at leading corporations through the pandemic is your defining moment.”
“2021 was an ever-changing year at Penn State Brandywine. The challenges and opportunities of our times called often upon our humanity and our humility, our hearts and our minds, to fulfill our mission. And now we are upon the special season when we pause to celebrate and to be grateful. We celebrate our students who are the center of all that we do.”
