Metropolitan State University of Denver congratulated nearly 1,200 students earning their associate’s, bachelor’s and master’s degrees today. Commencement ceremonies were held at the Colorado Convention Center and featured keynote speakers Chuck Moss, a two-time graduate of MSU Denver’s College of Business and a 30-year veteran of Wolters Kluwer, and Janet Damon, an MSU Denver History alumna and 2025 Colorado Teacher of the Year.
