On Sunday, September 26, 2021, some 1,750 Duke University students from the Class of 2020 — whose commencement last year was postponed — and more than 5,000 of their friends and family members gathered on Abele Quad to celebrate their accomplishments.

Undergraduate and graduate and professional students who graduated in September 2019, December 2019, and May 2020 from all 10 Duke schools were invited.

Actor-comedian Ken Jeong gave the commencement address. Jeong earned his bachelor’s degree from Duke in 1990 and is widely known for his work on the “Community” television show and “The Hangover” movie series.

Jeong was one of four distinguished individuals who will receive honorary degrees during the ceremony. He joins Mary Schmidt Campbell, a distinguished leader in higher education; and Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman, two scientists whose discoveries laid the foundation for the mRNA vaccines against COVID-19.

Congratulations, #Duke2020 ?
