Investiture 2026

On Saturday, June 13th, the class of 2026 walked across the stage to be hooded for their degrees. We are so proud of all that they have accomplished. Students walk at the ceremony in the Spring term of the year they graduate, so we had graduates who finished in Summer 2025, Fall 2025, Winter 2026, and Spring 2026. All totalled, MALS celebrated the completion of 38 degrees this year. We would also like to highlight our award winners! 

For the Byam Shaw-Brownstone Thesis Excellence Award:

Abigail Dollries - Cultural Studies

Denisse Rojas Maldonado - Globalization Studies

Stephen Marchand - Creative Writing, Fiction

Reng Zhao - Creative Writing, Non-Fiction

Charles Butler - General Liberal Studies

and the Privitera Family Distinguished Service Award, given this year to Caden Ide in recognition of his academic excellence, communal spirit, and outstanding leadership!

Thank you to everyone who attended the ceremony to support our graduates! We look forward to seeing all you do going forward! Keep in touch!
