The ceremony was held at Missouri Southern State University to ensure social distancing.
Some procedures were modified such as mask wearing and limiting guest size.
During the pandemic the school transitioned to online learning for a bit, but students were able to receive hands on learning and prepare for the workforce, and were able to celebrate their hard work in person this weekend.
“So we were so blessed today that for the first graduation in Joplin we were able to get together as a community,” said Laura Rosch, Dean of Kansas City University’s Joplin campus.
