Commencement 2008: Graduation Pledge Alliance

Susquehanna University is a flagship member of the Graduation Pledge Alliance, a national student organization whose mission is to promote socially and environmentally responsible actions by graduating seniors. The pledge below reinforces Susquehanna’s mission to achieve, lead and serve, and encourages our graduating seniors to take that mission with them into their lives after SU.

"I, _____, pledge to explore and take into account the social and environmental consequences of any job I consider and will try to improve these aspects of any organization for which I work."

Signing the pledge is a voluntary commitment students make and is often noted publicly by the wearing of a green ribbon. More information will be available about the pledge as Commencement approaches or from Dean Philip Winger in the Student Life Offices. For more information, visit the Graduation Pledge Alliance Web site at www.graduationpledge.org.
