41 students graduate USAO this fall

Though the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma has decided not to hold a fall 2020 commencement ceremony due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the institution has still bestowed 41 bachelor’s degrees this term. USAO will recognize and honor graduates during the April 2021 ceremony.

“Shaking the hand of each graduate is one of the highlights of every semester I have served as president, so I deeply regret the distance that this disease has put between us,” said President John Feaver. “I am, however, extremely proud of the efforts these students have made in this unprecedented situation. Their perseverance, courage and adaptability should be a lesson to us all in how to carry ourselves through the most difficult of times.”

This semester, USAO awarded 13 Bachelor of Arts degrees, 24 Bachelor of Science degrees and three Bachelor of Fine Arts degrees.

Nationally ranked for quality and value, for over a century USAO has remained committed to providing a broad and accessible undergraduate education as the state’s only public liberal arts college.
