It was a banner graduation day for the SBU DPT Program! 🎓👏
The celebration began by honoring our top graduates at the Alpha Eta Honor Society morning ceremony (Hannah Ahmed, Emily Caron, Sammie Gerbasio, Kyle Mai, Christopher Ng, Angela Porcelli, Izzie Quaranta, Erick Quezada Calle, Brooke Sparacio, Violet Ferraro, Meaghan King, Gabby Lewin, Kelly Madden, Patrick McStay & Lexi Kessler).

A special thank you to Emily Baird for her beautiful rendition of the National Anthem, which started the ceremony on a truly inspiring note.

Congratulations to Patrick McStay, recipient of the General Excellence Award, and to Shah Alam, Emily Baird, Sam Drew, Hannah Ahmed, Anthony Jacabacci, Jack Calisi, Sammie Gerbasio & Shauna Nuss who received our Clinical Excellence Awards for their outstanding clinical performance.

We also want to recognize Queen Margaret Sheryl, who flawlessly read the graduates’ names and is celebrating her retirement this year. Thank you for your dedication and service to our program and students over the years.

From hooding to heartfelt celebrations, the day was filled with pride, joy, smiles, amazing nails and only minimal hooding mishaps along the way! 😊

Congratulations to all of our graduates — you make us proud, and we cannot wait to see the impact you will make in the profession of physical therapy! 💙💛
