Class of 2025 First-Gen Grads Honored at Pinning Ceremony
The 2025 First-Gen Graduation Pinning Ceremony celebrating the achievements of the BU Class of 2025 graduates was held May 16 at the Tsai Performance Center. This year’s 155 students, among them Jairo Zelaya (COM’25) (at the podium) and Christian Gonzalez Ramirez (CAS’25) (far right), received Terrier Firsts pins, celebrating being their family’s first-generation graduating college student. Each participating student invited a guest—a family member or another supporter—who “pinned” the grad. ASL interpreters (on the left) were on hand as well. Photo by Michael Spencer
