Welch College Graduates 50 in Commencement Exercises
Welch College conferred degrees on 50 students from 15 states in commencement exercises at Memorial Auditorium on Friday, May 8, according to President Matt Pinson. Students completed degrees in multiple programs ranging from two-year associate’s degrees to four-year bachelor’s degrees. Forty-eight percent of the class graduated with honors.
Welch College Business Department Coordinator Dr. Rebecca Deel was named Academic Advisor of the Year. President Matt Pinson also recognized Dean of Women Susan Forlines for 25 years of faithful service to Welch College.
Dr. Bruce Barnes, former president of Gateway Christian College in Virginia Beach, Virginia, was included in the processional and led the prayer of consecration for the graduating class. Dr. Barnes worked closely with the administration of Welch College to aid in the enrollment of many former Gateway students after that school closed in 2013.
The college commends to you and to the work of the Lord the members of the 2015 graduating class.
