Capella University, an accredited online university headquartered in Minneapolis, will confer more than 900 graduate and undergraduate degrees at a commencement ceremony in atlanta, Georgia. The event will be held on Saturday, March 5, at 4:00 p.m., at Atlanta Symphony Hall and features respected researcher and national columnist Dr. Lisa Williams, who will serve as the keynote speaker.
"For Capella University, this year's commencement is significant in two key regards," said Michael J. Offerman, president, Capella University. "First, it's the first time that we'll be holding commencement in Atlanta. Secondly, it's also the first year that our student base has grown large enough that we'll need to hold not just one but two commencement ceremonies. To accommodate graduates from our base of more than 12,000 learners worldwide, we'll recognize the accomplishments of our graduates this month in Atlanta, and again in a summer ceremony to be held in July at The Majestic Theater in Dallas, Texas."
