Baccalaureate, Friday May 13, 2022 2:00 P.M.
We invite you to join us at the Baccalaureate Mass honoring the graduating class of 2022.
• The ceremony is a service in celebration of and thanksgiving for lives dedicated to learning and wisdom.
• The baccalaureate service derives from the medieval European custom of presenting the candidates for the degree of Bachelor (bacca) with laurels (lauri) of sermonic oration.
• The baccalaureate service is believed to have originated at the University of Oxford in 1432 when each bachelor was required to deliver a sermon in Latin as part of his academic requirements. Since the earliest universities in America were founded primarily to educate ministers, the British practice of the baccalaureate service was continued.
Emmanuel is a place where students broaden their sense of what’s possible and prepare for inspiring careers in an ever-changing world. Be here.
