More than 600 students walked the stage during the graduation ceremony

SAN ANTONIO —Texas A&M University-San Antonio on May 13 commemorated the spring 2024 graduates at Freeman Coliseum, where more than 600 graduates gathered with families, friends, faculty, and distinguished guests to celebrate.

The ceremony included special videos of students reading letters thanking those who supported them throughout their academic journey and helped them reach such an important milestone.  

"As you go forward to the next chapter of your lives, I encourage you to support and uplift others the same way you were supported and lifted up," said University President Salvador Hector Ochoa. "I also urge you never to accept limitations that others may want to place on you. You set your own horizons and your path toward them. There is no limit to what you can accomplish." 

The ceremony culminated with an exciting glow-in-the-dark party, with a dazzling light show and music.
