Graduates: Nominate Yourself to Speak at Graduation

You have a story – and its worth telling! Central Piedmont’s Graduation Committee is now accepting nominations of student graduates to serve as the student speaker at this year’s commencement celebration. Ideally, nominated students would share a pride in their educational journey, a passion for Central Piedmont, and would be willing and able to share their experience and wisdom during the celebration.

Nominations will be accepted until March 11 via the student speaker nomination form, and interviews and selection will conclude by April 1. Students selected for an interview will be asked to share a brief written reflection of their college experience. The selected graduate will receive guidance, rehearsal, and support to prepare their official remarks.

Check out the remarks to the graduating class from Emma Hoff, last year’s student speaker. Please submit the 2022 Graduation Student Speaker Nomination form to help our selection committee identify top candidates.

Any questions regarding nominations can be forwarded to jesse.bennett@cpcc.edu.
