Over 5,000 UTSA graduates to cross stage today in spring Commencement ceremonies

MAY 14, 2022 — As students at UTSA, the spring class of 2022 lived an experience unlike any class before it.

Their college journeys have been momentous, to say the least, and they will culminate during Commencement today at the Alamodome.

The university will hold two Commencement ceremonies on Saturday to celebrate the 5,031 graduates of the spring and summer 2022 classes.
