Watch Live: Bergen Community College Virtual Graduation

The ceremony was moved online due to the coronavirus pandemic. Watch the event, featuring a keynote address from Sen. Cory Booker, here.

PARAMUS, NJ — Bergen Community College will host a virtual graduation for the class of 2020 beginning at 5:30 p.m. Sen. Cory Booker will give the keynote address during the event, which will be livestreamed on YouTube.

The ceremony was originally scheduled at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford for the same day, but was moved online due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The event will try to replicate an in-person commencement, as there will be remarks from government officials — including Bergen County Executive James Tedesco III, Bergen County Board of Chosen Freeholders Chair Mary Amoroso and Booker — and the reading of graduates names.
