Western Nevada College commencement ceremonies are only a month away! The Class of 2025 will be honored in May in separate ceremonies in Carson City and Fallon.

The Carson City Commencement is set for 10 a.m. Monday, May 19, at Marv Teixeira Pavilion in Mills Park.

A second graduation is scheduled for 10 a.m. Wednesday, May 21, at Barkley Theatre in Oats Park Arts Center in Fallon.

WNC President Dr. J. Kyle Dalpe will be well-positioned on the stage to congratulate each graduate.

“As an educator, commencement is always my favorite time of year. It’s a celebration of hard work, perseverance, and the deep pride our students and their families feel in reaching this milestone,” said WNC President Dr. J. Kyle Dalpe.

WNC Foundation Board Trustee Lupe Ramirez, a WNC grad and the creator of the Latino Cohort and Latino Leadership Academy, will deliver the commencement address at both ceremonies. After a 32-year career in higher education, Ramirez is now serving as president of the Carson City School District Board of Trustees.
