Office of the President

2021 Winter Commencement

In the Crisler Center, Prairie View A&M President Ruth Simmons tells graduates: “Continue to value the fearless pursuit of truth. Keep seeking and forging commonalities among people who are different from you. … Most of all, don’t just laminate or hang your diploma as proof of your studies here; persistent fidelity to its values is the best proof of your success as an alumnus.”
