Cumberland University announced today that it will graduate the largest class in school history in a commencement ceremony scheduled for May 4, 2019.

The 2018-2019 academic year that began with the school’s largest total enrollment, will also conclude with a milestone achievement. Cumberland’s May commencement ceremony will honor 594 total graduates.

“I am thrilled that Cumberland continues to transform student lives,” said University President Dr. Paul C. Stumb. “Each year, Cumberland is preparing more and more students to become productive, skilled members of society to serve the Middle Tennessee community and beyond.”
