Each year, UCI social sciences picks two outstanding students to represent their graduating class at commencement as the featured ceremony speakers. Student speakers are selected from among a competitive pool of applicants during winter quarter following an interview process in which a sample speech is delivered. The final two students selected then spend the next two quarters meeting with the school's commencement team to polish their speeches for delivery at the June ceremonies.

Learn more about our past outstanding speakers, and keep an eye out for the winter quarter call to earn the opportunity to represent your graduating class.
