MILLIGAN COLLEGE — Milligan College will hold its fall commencement ceremony on Friday, Dec. 13, at 7 p.m. in the college’s Mary B. Martin Auditorium located in Seeger Chapel. Over 100 graduates will be awarded degrees.

The commencement service will include the first graduates of Milligan’s Master of Science in Information Systems (MSIS). For graduate Jonathan Miller, Milligan’s reputation for excellence and the MSIS program’s competitive cost were the deciding factors for joining the inaugural class. As a current IT security analyst for Ballad Health, Miller has gained a deeper understanding of his profession and critical leadership skills through this program.

“Each class in the MSIS program has helped to shape my professional career and my personal life,” shared Miller. “Milligan has some of the most supportive and understanding instructors. They strive to not only educate and challenge us, but they also motivate and encourage us to believe that we are capable of more than we think.”
