After a most challenging year that included Covid-19, remote studies and social distancing, followed by the recent rocket attacks, we were overjoyed to finally celebrate in-person Graduation Ceremonies!

Outfitted for the first time in caps and gowns, our 1,115 graduates celebrated over two consecutive evening events (June 7 and 8) with their families.
 
Each evening's main event kicked off by recognizing outstanding students−a total of 41−who received Sapir's Honors Certificate from their Department Chairs, followed by speeches celebrating this year's graduates given by: Gilead Sher, Chair of the Executive Board, Professor Shai Feldman, President and Professor Nir Kedar, Associate President, honors students and Student Union Chair, Yuri Levin. Yuri, spoke movingly about his journey at Sapir, from his start in the Mechina Pre-Academic Studies program, culminating in his graduation at this year's ceremony with a BA degree with Honors in Social Work. After the main event, alumni received their diplomas in departmental graduation ceremonies.
