The Class of 2020 celebrated their hard work and achievements Sunday with family members and loved ones in homes around the world.

In a special virtual video event, Chancellor Kent Syverud conferred more than 3,800 undergraduate and 2,800 graduate and professional degrees.

Although unable to be together as a class on what would have been Commencement day, graduates showed off their Orange spirit and marked the occasion with fanfare and a lot of orange.

Graduates connected with other members of the Class of 2020 on social media using the #SUGrad20 hashtag.

Here are some of the photos of the day.
