On Saturday, May 6, 2017 a total of 1,861 undergraduates, 189 graduate students, and 8 doctoral students participated in commencement at the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center (DECC). UMD’s Executive Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Fernando Delgado was the ceremony speaker. For the first time students received Military Honor Cords following this protocol: “If you are graduating and are an honorably discharged US veteran, are currently serving in the US military (active duty, National Guard, or Reserves), or will be commissioned upon graduation, you are authorized to wear a Military Honor Cord.”
