Learn about the Graduation Pledge Alliance.

Graduation Pledge

The Pledge

"I pledge to explore and take into account the social and environmental consequences of any job I consider and will try to improve these aspects of any organizations for which I work.”

History of the Graduation Pledge

The Graduation Pledge Alliance was founded at Humboldt State University and adopted by UNCW students as a result of a senior initiative in 2001. Those who choose to take the pledge join students from all over the country. UNCW Student Government Association, Omicron Delta Kappa and Environmental Concerns Organization enthusiastically endorse the pledge.

Why Take the Graduation Pledge

The Graduation Pledge is an opportunity for seniors to make a commitment to being part of shaping a better citizenry and world through their employment, awareness and advocacy.

Who Can Take the Gradation Pledge

Seniors who are graduating can take it. When you take the pledge, you will receive a green ribbon that should be worn on the left side of your graduation gown, above your heart.
