The Commencement Exercises for the Class of 2025 of Seminary of the Southwest

Please join the community of Seminary of the Southwest for the two ceremonies it holds each year to celebrate graduation – an evening service of Holy Eucharist and a formal morning Commencement. These services recognize and celebrate graduating students and award degrees in divinity, religion, counseling, chaplaincy and pastoral care, and spiritual formation and diplomas in Anglican studies and in theological studies.

It was recently announced that acclaimed lawyer, author, and founder and Executive Director of the Equal Justice Initiative (EJI ), Bryan Stevenson, will preach at the Commencement Exercises. Honorary doctorates will be presented to Mr. Stevenson and the Honorable Linnet Deily, former U.S. ambassador to the World Trade Organization.
