The Black Alumni/ae of MIT (BAMIT) are pleased to invite the entire MIT community to the annual celebration of our graduates. We will acknowledge the accomplishments of all Class of 2026 graduates, both undergraduates and graduate students. Each graduate will receive a hand-woven, embroidered African Kente stole.
The theme of this year's celebration is "In Our Own Frequency" to honor the 2026 graduates’ mastery of technology subject matter, celebrate their success in navigating MIT as Black students, and emphasize MIT’s culture of collective achievement and community.
Our Keynote speaker will be Greg Anderson '94 SM '96, Emmy-nominated Senior VFX Supervisor and Creative Director with nearly 30 years of experience leading visual effects for some of the most technologically ambitious and culturally influential film and streaming productions of the modern era.
This is a hybrid event. You may choose to attend in person or virtually via livestream. Please select the appropriate option, and those who register virtually will receive a link by email closer to the event. For those who are unable to attend but would like to support the event, please select "Not Attending, Want to Contribute" as your ticket option, and you will have the opportunity to make a voluntary financial contribution. Thank you!
For 2026 Graduates: The registration deadline for graduating students to be included in the program is April 3rd. Late additions may be allowed on a case-by-case basis. After you register, you will need to email a professional headshot to bgcgrad@mit.edu for the slideshow during the celebration so you can be included in the program.
