Western Nevada College's Record Graduating Class of 2020 honored in drive-through ceremony

Western Nevada College’s 2020 graduates were honored by the school, their families, friends and community in a drive-through commencement ceremony on Friday in Carson City.

WNC graduated a record 650 students, including 94 students from the Jump Start College Program.

To practice safe social distancing, each graduate had the opportunity to have family or friends drive them to a staging area on campus, exit their vehicle, and have their name announced on stage while being congratulated by dignitaries and WNC faculty.

The ceremony marked a special celebration as the state of Nevada adheres to the new health and safety procedures during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“This is a special moment for our graduates as we endure through these tough times,” said Dr. Vincent Solis, President of Western Nevada College. “It will be a moment our staff, faculty, students and community will never forget.”

For those unable to attend, the ceremony will be live streamed and can be watched with the link here.

The 2020 Graduating Class is as follows:
