From heartfelt tributes to creative designs and Tiger pride on full display, the caps at last week’s Savannah State University Spring 2026 Commencement told stories all their own.
We loved seeing our graduates celebrate their journeys, honor the people who helped them get here, and step into their next chapter with style, personality, and purpose.
Once a Tiger, always a Tiger. 💙🧡
Last week, Savannah State University proudly celebrated the commissioning of three outstanding Navy ROTC seniors as officers in the United States Navy. 🐯
Their journey to this moment reflects years of discipline, leadership, resilience, and commitment to something greater than themselves — both in the classroom and in service.
Congratulations to:
Amiya S. Furman, BS in Homeland Security
Tiara N. Hill, BS in Homeland Security
Jessica A. Maguire, BA in Sociology
The ceremony also featured remarks from CAPT Donnie Cochran, U.S. Navy (Ret.), whose groundbreaking career and leadership in the Blue Angels served as a meaningful reminder of the impact service and determination can have for future generations.
Your Tiger family is proud to celebrate this incredible accomplishment. Navy and Tiger Strong!
