Despite being interrupted by a power outage that lasted 36 minutes, students shined at the 11th annual Latinx Graduation on May 18, 2024, in Haehl Pavilion. Members of the Latinx Faculty and Staff Association quickly got ahold of a megaphone which allowed the graduation to continue for the duration of the outage.
