Forever a Niner – Celebrate Your Journey

Thursday, May 8, 2025
6:30 – 8:30 PM
Popp Martin Student Union
Room 340

The UNC Charlotte Alumni Association invites all Spring 2025 graduates and up to four guests to participate in a new commencement tradition: Forever a Niner, which connects and brings all graduates and their chosen families together to celebrate commencement and their many years of hard work.

Graduating students and up to four (4) guests are invited to attend this drop-in event to connect with alumni networks! Representatives from each group will be available at individual tables to share information and distribute graduation stoles and cords. Rather than a structured ceremony, the event allows students and their guests to engage at their own pace, make meaningful connections, and commemorate this milestone with the people that have shaped their journey.

Alumni communities, including the Black Alumni Chapter, Legacy Alumni Network, GOLD Alumni Network, Latinx/a/o Alumni Network, LGBTQIA+ Alumni Network and Niner Varsity Club, will be at Forever a Niner to help celebrate our graduates. All are welcome!

Complimentary parking will be available in the Student Union parking deck.
