Commencement season is one of our favorite times of the year at WashU Emergency Management.
Behind every graduation celebration is a tremendous amount of planning, coordination, and teamwork. In the weeks leading up to Commencement, our team works closely with school leadership, event staff, student ambassadors, volunteers, and campus partners to review emergency plans, conduct walkthroughs, and ensure everyone is prepared to respond to any situation.
From pre-event training sessions with Olin Business School, McKelvey School of Engineering, Arts & Sciences, and the Bear Ambassadors, to staffing the Emergency Operations Center and coordinating with our Incident Management Team, Crisis Management Team, and public safety partners, countless individuals work together behind the scenes to help create a safe and successful experience for our graduates and their families.
We are honored to play a role in these milestone moments and proud to support the celebrations that mark the culmination of years of hard work and dedication.
Congratulations to the Class of 2026!
Together, we are WashU Ready.
