According to Hofstra, the school’s Intercultural Engagement and Inclusion, Residential Life, and First-Generation Support and Engagement offices typically hold such occasions each May.

“Our Graduates of Color Ceremony is a time for graduating students of color to celebrate their achievements,” an event web page says. “Our Lavender Graduation Ceremony is a time for LGBTQ+ identified students and their allies to celebrate their achievements.”
