Naturalization Ceremony

Faculty, staff, students, and community members are invited to attend the Naturalization Ceremony on Thursday, September 17 at 11:00 AM in the SC4 Fieldhouse. Join us for this inspiring Constitution Day celebration as we welcome and honor new U.S. citizens during a meaningful milestone in their citizenship journey.

This marks the fourth year SC4 has hosted the ceremony in partnership with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. Federal Judge Kimberly Altman will preside over the ceremony, and the keynote address will be delivered by SVSU business professor Dr. Joseph Ofori-Dankwa, a naturalized U.S. citizen.

Last year, nearly 150 individuals representing more than 40 nations completed the naturalization process on SC4’s campus.

We are honored to host this special event and invite both the campus and local community to be part of this memorable occasion. Come celebrate the values of citizenship, diversity, and opportunity as we welcome our newest U.S. citizens. We look forward to seeing you there!
