Congratulations to All of Our ANSC December 2021 Graduates
ANSC December Graduation 2021: The AGNR commencement took place on December 22, 2021. Due to a rise in COVID cases on campus, UMD canceled the university's ceremony and the AGNR event was virtual; all winter graduates are invited to participate in the Spring ceremonies (UMD scheduled for 5/20/22, AGNR scheduled for 5/19/22). ANSC's own Chris Erdman delivered the Stole of Gratitude address for the AGNR commencement.
