Bust out the Bloody Mary mix and the mimosas this year, the Senior Breakfast has become the Senior Brunch. The festivities begin at 1 pm sharp.
The annual event predates Warren Towers, the GSU, and Walter Brown Arena and marks the official start of Commencement celebrations and Senior Week. This year’s later start time was designed to better accommodate students studying and living in different time zones.
This year, BU’s annual Senior Breakfast became Senior Brunch.
On Friday, April 30, the Class of 2021 tuned in to the Zoom ceremony to toast one another and officially kick off Commencement 2021 festivities.
And, of course, to find out who this year’s Commencement speaker would be. Because there will be two separate ceremonies on Commencement day, May 16 one for grad students and another for graduating seniors word came that there will be two speakers: US Representative Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.), a trailblazing politician who briefly attended Boston University, will be the speaker at the afternoon undergraduate ceremony, and Noubar Afeyan, cofounder and chairman of Moderna Therapeutics, Inc., will address students at the morning graduate ceremony.
