Lavender Graduation

Lavender Graduation is a celebration, a declaration, and a refusal to be erased. It honors LGBTQIA+ students who have navigated academic institutions that were not always built with them in mind—students who have excelled, led, and fought for their right to exist unapologetically. This ceremony is both a milestone and an acknowledgment of the barriers these students have overcome and the futures they are forging. The event will feature a keynote address, entertainment, and a reception, bringing together students, faculty, families, and community members in an atmosphere of joy, solidarity, and recognition.

A Lavender graduate is anyone who is graduating from college and identifies as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community. If that applies to you, you are encouraged to sign up to walk at Brooklyn College’s Lavender Graduation ceremony.
