Tiger Commencement Pledge

Towson University seniors have the option of taking the Tiger Commencement Pledge when they graduate:

As a TU graduate I will...

Take responsibility for the social and environmental consequences of my decisions.
Inspire others by my example.
Grow personally, professionally, ethically, and intellectually.
Embrace opportunities for community involvement.
Represent TU proudly.
 

All graduating seniors are invited to take the Tiger Commencement Pledge and wear a symbolic black and gold ribbon on Graduation Day. Pledge cards, ribbons and materials are passed out during cap and gown pick up periods for both winter and spring commencement ceremonies.
