Graduating seniors are invited to apply to be the IUPUI student commencement speaker each spring. The student commencement speaker will give a three-to-five-minute speech in front of graduating students, their guests, and campus officials.
Commencement will be on Saturday, May 14, 2022. Additional details about the IUPUI commencement are available on the Commencement website.
Eligible students may apply to be the student commencement speaker by completing an application packet. The undergraduate student speaker will have a successful academic record and a history of participation in campus or community activities.
A selection committee with representation from the faculty, staff, and student body will review applications, interview a number of candidates, and determine finalists.
