Dear Graduates, Families, Friends and Alumni:

I'm delighted to invite you to a momentous event - Goizueta Business School's commencement. It celebrates several important aspects of life for new graduates.

First, it celebrates achievement. Goizueta graduates have joined an elite club. Our School's programs are selective, demanding and rigorous. Earning a degree requires sustained effort and determination. You may feel justifiably proud of any student who has excelled and persevered through these demanding years of study.

Next, commencement celebrates opportunity. We know that our graduates will pursue careers amidst rapid change and ongoing challenges. We believe that Goizueta graduates will be champions of change and advocates of innovative ways to create economic value. Goizueta graduates are poised for success under whatever directions the global economy moves.

Finally, it celebrates community. Our graduates are life-long members of the Goizueta Business School family, connected to the school and to a large network of other Goizueta alumni, who stand ready to help each other. We also recognize that no one graduates without the strong support of his or her immediate family and friends. This familial community helps launch our graduates into successful careers.

We invite you to join us in this important celebration.

Sincerely yours,

Erika James
Dean
