Speaking Opportunities
Send off your classmates with a speech!
There will be a couple of opportunities to give a speech during Commencement Week. This will be an exciting opportunity to send off your classmates with your insights, represent your class to the community and infuse the ceremonies with the student voice.
All of these opportunities are open to all graduating students from all three Linfield divisions (McMinnville, Portland and Online and Continuing Education). All speeches should be four minutes or less and should reflect the Linfield experience as a whole, not just your experience on a particular campus.
To apply for this honor, submit your FULL draft of the speech to Debbie Harmon Ferry NO LATER than Monday, May 1 at 5 p.m. Selected applicants will be invited to present their speeches to the selection committee on May 6.
This year's Commencement Weekend student speaking opportunities include:
- Student Commencement speaker
- Speakers for the student toasts (toast to friends and family, toast to faculty and staff, toast to fellow graduates)
