Graduating senior Patrick Williams will give the ceremony’s valedictorian address. The salutatorian will be Diego Arias, a member of the junior class, in keeping with Bosco Tech tradition. The keynote address will be given by Victor Mata, a Bosco Tech alumnus of the class of 2009, who recently graduated from Harvard University with a degree in economics. Mata’s two younger brothers, Gustavo Mata and Miguel Mata, are honor students in Bosco Tech’s 2014 graduating class.

The baccalaureate Mass will be held on the campus mall, with the traditional conferral of diplomas following. The ceremony will feature Bosco Tech’s traditional alumni reception line, where past graduates welcome each member of the class of 2014 into their ranks. An alumni gathering will be hosted by the school’s Alumni Association immediately after the graduation festivities.
