We are excited to welcome back classes ending in 3 & 8 for an in-person celebration on the Shadyside and Eden Hall campuses. Additionally, we are kicking off Alumni Reunion Weekend with the investiture ceremony of President Dr. Rhonda Phillips. The investiture ceremony and the Admissions update will be live streamed for those who are unable to join us on campus.

An investiture ceremony is an academic event typically held during a new president’s first year. The formal ceremony signifies the beginning of a new chapter of leadership for the university, and it provides an opportunity for the university, guests, and community to witness the formal installation of the new leader. The ceremony features academic traditions, speakers, and remarks by the president.
The investiture ceremony will take place on Chatham University’s Shadyside Campus in the Campbell Memorial Chapel.
To ensure that everyone can be a part of their Alumni Reunion Weekend, we will provide live streaming options for President Phillips’ investiture ceremony and the Admissions update with VP of Enrollment Management, Amy Becher.
