From first of its kind research to stories of student and alumni success, read the latest news from George Mason.

Listen to student speaker Duy Vu's 2025 commencement address, as he shares a powerful message of resilience, perseverance, and hope.

"Life doesn't come with a map, and as we try to navigate, we make mistakes. We stumble. Sometimes we hit the ground harder than we expected, but I stand here before you not because I'm the perfect student. It's because I never let those mistakes define me. And today, as I look at all of you in your caps and gowns, I see a room full of people who did just that." ~ Duy Vu
