""We're super excited about Jane Lynch. She was always one of the people we kept top of mind this year. One of the things we as a committee really wanted was an alum, just to embody that Big Red spirit.""
""And the other thing that came up a lot in our surveys was, people wanted just a fun, light-hearted, high-energy event, and we feel like she really, really embodies all of those principles.""
""Convocation is a really special opportunity to celebrate the Class of '26 as a collective.""
Jane Lynch, a Golden Globe and Emmy Award winner, will be the keynote speaker at the Senior Convocation on May 21 in Barton Hall. The student-run 2026 Convocation Committee announced her selection, emphasizing the desire for an alum who embodies the Big Red spirit. The event will feature a student speaker, performances, and remarks from university leadership. Class of 2026 undergraduates will have priority for tickets, with a pre-Convocation event including performances and a senior class photo.
