The Florida National University Commencement Ceremony was held on Sunday, May 6th 2012. The celebration was held at the James L Knight Center in downtown Miami followed by a Graduation Banquet at the Hyatt Regency Miami. Graduates, family, friends, faculty and staff all came together to celebrate the academic accomplishments our students have worked so hard to achieve.

One of the most important and memorable milestones is graduation day. It is a pivotal point in which a new chapter of life begins. The graduates were fortunate to have three amazing speakers to inspire and motivate them on their new journey. Jessie Alabre, Associates in Science Nursing was the Valedictorian , Yusnier Gutierrez ,Bachelors of Science in Criminal Justice was the Salutatorian and the guest speaker was Alumni Yuneymis Diaz Gomez, Associates of Arts in Paralegal Studies.
