Commencement isn't possible without a great event staff team! Over 50 individuals are needed to greet guests, assist with student line-up, drive a golf cart, and perform countless other tasks at both the morning (approx. 7-11 a.m.) and afternoon (approx. 11:30-3:30 p.m.) ceremonies on Saturday, May 16. Sign up to work a four- or eight-hour shift and earn floating holiday hours (salary/exempt employees only) or hourly staff are paid for hours worked, but please make arrangements with your supervisor first. Also, enjoy snacks, beverages, and pizza in the event staff lounge.

Boxer Giving Day is coming March 18–19 and marks one of Pacific’s most meaningful moments to come together in support of students. Pacific students are known for showing up with determination, purpose, and a commitment to lifting others up — even as higher education faces real and growing challenges. Boxer Giving Day is our opportunity to rally around them and show what Boxer Spirit looks like in action. During this 36-hour celebration, gifts support scholarships, emergency aid, wellness resources, athletics, and programs across all pathways. Together, these funds help students stay enrolled, pursue their purpose, and prepare to become the educators, caregivers, innovators, and leaders our communities need. Save the date for Boxer Giving Day and be part of a Pacific community that shows up for students and helps make their success possible!
