Hello Wildcat Alumni,

We would love to ask your help in congratulating the Class of 2024 with a video that will be played at this year's graduation ceremony. Most of these students didn't get an in-person high school graduation. So we are trying to make this celebration extra special for them. Just use your smartphone to record a short video with the script provided below. We will be editing all the videos voices into one track to create a resounding chorus of congratulations to all our future Wildcat alumni.

Video guidelines:

• Record as a horizontal (or landscape) video in a high-resolution setting.
• Upload an .mp4 or .mov file (most cameras use these formats). 
• Make sure you have good lighting and there is no distracting noise like wind or traffic.
• Use a background that reflects you and/or your location. Plants, photos, textures are all great! Try to avoid plain walls for a backdrop.

If you would like to create a longer message, we would love that as well. Here’s what you could say:

• What you wish for the 2024 class, or your college. What is your best advice?
• Something you remember from your own commencement.
• A favorite memory you have from your time at the University of Arizona.  
   

If a video is not possible, we will happily take a photo. Any way you want to show your support for future fellow alumni would be greatly appreciated.

Please submit HERE by Friday, May 3

If you have any questions or concerns about recording or submitting your videos, please contact ceremonies@arizona.edu.
