Here you can meet our outstanding graduates, view their project showcases and leave a congratulatory note on their pages; view student awards; watch as student organizations bid their students farewell; enjoy a gallery of photos submitted by graduating students; and view messages from the dean and school directors.

At the CAPLA Convocation Showcase you may also watch the CAPLA Spring 2023 Convocation via recorded livestream for the ceremony that took place at Centennial Hall on the UArizona campus.

In addition to recognition of our graduations, the CAPLA Convocation featured a welcome by Dean Nancy Pollock-Ellwand, keynote address by Senior Lecturer in Architecture and AIA Arizona President Damon Leverett and student speeches by Keegan Thomas '23 MLA and Bodin Lay '23 B.Arch. The event's emcee was Laura Hollengreen, associate dean for academic affairs and associate professor of architecture.

Congratulations, Class of 2023!
