Pilipino American Unity for Progress (UniPro) and the Philippine Consulate General in Houston invite you to participate in the 2nd Annual
Philippine Graduation Ceremony
Date: Tuesday, June, 30 2020
Time: 9:30am – 1:30pm
Place: Via Virtual Platform
The event is open to all Filipino-American academic candidates who have successfully completed coursework in an undergraduate, graduate, or doctoral field this year.
The Philippine Graduation Ceremony (known as P-Grad) has been a tradition for many years in colleges and universities along the West and East Coasts with high Filipino American student populations. At these ceremonies, community leaders commend the achievements made by graduating students of Filipino descent, and send them off to the next stage of their careers with words of encouragement.
We continue this tradition in order to celebrate the students in the Houston and Texas region. Remarks will be given by the Consul General, the Honorable Jerril G. Santos, Ivan Pham & John Catral, SIFA Co-Presidents, and leaders of the local Filipino community, followed by a presentation of the graduating students.
