Welcome to the 56th Commencement of the Community College of Rhode Island! We are excited that you are joining us in celebrating the Class of 2021.

Despite the changes and uncertainty of the past year, we remain committed to recognizing and honoring the success of our graduates. We are so proud of our graduating students for all they have accomplished – and we are excited to celebrate this moment with you!

Although we are not yet able to safely gather in person, we believe we can still honor and celebrate our graduates in a meaningful way. Congratulations on this great achievement!

Please take the time to watch the videos, which include congratulatory remarks from CCRI President Meghan Hughes, Governor Daniel McKee, the Speaker of the RI House of Representatives, President of the RI Senate, Rhode Island’s federal delegation, and our student commencement speaker Jeremy Servant. 

And, after the conferring of degrees and certificates, don’t forget to move your tassel and throw your cap in the air! 

Let’s celebrate!
