October Undergraduate Ceremony

Welcome to the friends and families of our graduates on campus today as UGA recognizes Spring and Summer 2020 graduates in a special, rescheduled ceremony tonight in Sanford Stadium. The speaker for tonight's event is University of Georgia vice president for Student Affairs, Victor Wilson:

During his nearly four decades of experience in higher education, he has been a strong advocate for students and student development, particularly the inclusion and success of students from historically underrepresented groups.

Wilson began his career at UGA in 1983 as director of orientation and assistant director of admissions. Wilson also previously held the roles of assistant to the president and associate vice president for student affairs at the university.

From 2004 to 2013, Wilson served as executive vice president for student affairs at the College of Charleston, where he established a new student leadership center; improved health, safety, and residential facilities and services; and successfully advocated for enhanced diversity education.

Congratulations and best wishes to the Class of 2020.
