Commencement Ceremony 2024

Seminole State College will hold its 91^st Commencement Ceremony on Friday, May 3, for students completing coursework requirements for their degree programs. The graduation ceremony will be held at 10 a.m. inside the Raymond Harber Field House on campus.

Following the processional, Oklahoma State Representative Kevin Wallace (R-District 32) will offer the invocation. President Lana Reynolds will welcome guests and offer special comments.

This year’s commencement address will be delivered by Rep. Charles McCall, Oklahoma’s longest-serving Speaker of the House of Representatives. He was first elected to House District 22 in 2012. Four years later, he was elected Speaker, the first Republican from southeastern Oklahoma to hold the position. He brought years of experience as a community banker with him to the role. His focus on getting the state’s fiscal house in order brought the state budget out of shortfalls and into solvency. During his tenure as Speaker, personal and corporate income taxes have decreased while public common education funding has increased by 35% and state reserves have been built up to record levels.
