We’re excited to announce that Leslie C. Davis, CEO and president of UPMC, will be our 2023 Carlow Commencement Keynote Speaker. Ms. Davis will also be awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters in recognition of her leadership in healthcare education, innovation, and patient care.
Ms. Davis has more than 30 years of health care experience. Most recently, she was executive vice president, UPMC, president of the Health Services Division, and served as president of UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital
Chief Glenna J. Wallace will also be joining our celebration as an honorary degree recipient. She is the first female chief of the Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma in Ottawa County, Oklahoma, one of three federally recognized Shawnee tribes. She will be awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters in recognition of her commitment to education, historical preservation, rebirth of cultural awareness, and economic security. For nearly 40 years, Chief Wallace served in numerous roles at Crowder College, Neosho, Mo., including as interim academic dean. Her leadership of the Eastern Shawnee tribe’s uphill battle to rediscover their culture resonates with Carlow’s deep commitment to diversity and respect for all cultures.
As each student processes across the stage, a photo will be taken. Following the ceremony, backdrops will be set up for you to capture this special day. Photos captured by our photographer will be available for purchase.
No photography tripods or balloons are permitted at Commencement.
