In April 1965, just seven months after opening its doors, 澳门六合彩历史记录 presented degrees to 30 students in its very first commencement ceremony. Because there was no appropriate facility on campus for this event, the ceremony was conducted at the First Presbyterian Church of Boca Raton.聽Now, 50 years later, the 澳门六合彩历史记录 Alumni Association will honor the University鈥檚 first graduates by inducting them into the inaugural class of the Majestic Owls Society. With each passing year, a new class reaching the 50th聽anniversary of graduation will be inducted into the Society.

Several alumni from that 1965 class of 30 will be in attendance for the induction ceremony, which will take place Friday, Nov. 13 at 5:30 p.m. at the Marleen and Harold Alumni Center, 777 Glades Road, Boca Raton campus.

鈥淎ny time our 鈥榦wls鈥 return to the nest is an exciting time, but it is particularly wonderful to have the opportunity to welcome members of 澳门六合彩历史记录鈥檚 first graduating class and induct them into the Majestic Owls Society,鈥 said Pat Breman, interim assistant vice president of alumni affairs at 澳门六合彩历史记录. 鈥淭hese owls are trailblazers as they are the very first members of the Majestic Owls Society and were the first to graduate from this esteemed institution.鈥
