The College of the Holy Cross conferred 733 Bachelor of Arts degrees at its 179th Commencement Exercises on Friday, May 23, at the DCU Center in Worcester, Massachusetts. As graduates celebrated their accomplishments with their families and friends, valedictorian Claire Wolf ’25 encouraged the class of 2025 to reflect on the people who supported them along the way, and to show up for others as they embark on their next chapters.
“I ask you today to consider how you will lift others as you climb…," Wolf said. “It is through these deeds, through lifting others up, that we reveal the never-ending love of God and send forth empowering waves of justice, peace, and love from our own beloved hilltop.”
