Commencement 2024

More than 700 students earned certificates or degrees with the Northern Essex Community College's class of 2024. Approximately 400 of those students, along with thousands of family members, friends, and supporters, gathered for the May 18th celebration. NECC President Lane Glenn opened the ceremony with words of encouragement for the class of 2024. "During your time at NECC, you have faced challenges, you have all been through the fire, and you know how it feels. You are stronger and as prepared as any generation that has come before you to take your grit and do great things with it." Biology major and student speaker Akira Matos echoed that sentiment in her speech. She recalled a unit from her Early College English class on the Hero's Journey. "Maybe it's me being nostalgic, or maybe it's the realization that we as a whole are going through our very own impossible quest," she said. "For some, NECC is only the beginning, act 1 of the call to adventure, or maybe you're already in act 2 and crossing the threshold into new territory with your degree in hand. No matter the stage, we are still on our way." Matos shared how she never thought she'd go to college at all, let alone be chosen to speak at graduation. As a metal fabrication student at Whittier Tech., she sometimes struggled academically. But when she started taking Early College classes at NECC, she discovered the different pace and expectations suited her. Then, she learned that she could continue her education at NECC for free under the NECC Promise Program. Matos is already enrolled at UMass Lowell and studying for her bachelor's degree in biology. She plans to eventually go to medical school to become an ophthalmologist. Matos was followed by this year's featured commencement speaker, US Congresswoman Lori Trahan. She urged the class of 2024 to use the same determination to finish their degrees to create the future they want for themselves and their families. "Don't for a second let anyone tell you that our best days are behind us. We are a country that is going to continue improving with each generation," said Rep. Trahan. "Now more than ever, we need you to vote. We need you to use your voice for the causes you care about. We need you to push for progress. Our nation has always benefited when young people lead the way. There's no better example of that than here in Massachusetts." Congratulations Northern Essex Community College Class of 2024!
