315 earn degrees at UOG commencement


The University of Guam conferred degrees Sunday to 315 graduates at its Fañomnåkan 2024 Commencement Ceremony in the Calvo Field House.

Of 269 bachelor’s degrees conferred — a 15% increase from last spring — the largest programs were business administration, biology, primarily in the bio-medical track, and nursing, the latter with a near-record number of 31 graduates. Of 46 master’s degrees conferred, the largest program was the Master of Arts in Teaching for secondary education with 17 graduates.

UOG President Anita Borja Enriquez acknowledged that this graduating class endured Typhoon Mawar, the pandemic — many who missed out on their high school graduation ceremonies — along with personal struggles. “But we exercised our island cultural strengths of community, faith, and resilience — our minesgnon — to ensure comfort and safety across our flotilla of canoes to get us through these challenges,” she said.
