February 2024
Dear Undergraduate Student of the Class of 2024:
At this year’s Undergraduate Commencement Ceremony, a representative from the Class of 2024 will be asked to give greetings and a short address to those gathered for the occasion. You are invited to apply to be that representative provided you have graduated in January 2024 or have a graduation application on file for June 2024 or August 2024. (Note: If you plan to graduate in June or August, you must have a graduation application on file before you submit this form.) If you are eligible and interested in applying for this honor, you should do the following:
After the deadline of March 15, 2024 at 4:30 p.m., a Selection Committee will review the submissions. (Note: Members of the Committee review the written texts and are not aware of the writer’s name. Only after the group is reduced to a very small number of finalists does the Committee listen to the recordings, and review the personal information provided. The person chosen will be notified via email and will be offered assistance in completing the final draft of the speech.
*Please note: If you do not have access to the technology required to make an audio recording of your speech, or if you need a flash drive to save your speech, please contact me at: ipayne@ramapo.edu at your earliest convenience and accommodations will be made. If you require disability related accommodations, please contact me at least 48 hours before the submission deadline so those accommodations can be made.
Examples of what the Selection Committee is looking for in a speech:
This is a wonderful opportunity. I hope you will consider applying for this honor. If you have any questions, please contact me at (201) 684-7457 or via email.
Sincerely,
Ivy N. Payne
Student Affairs Coordinator
