Every April, the Pepperdine Caruso School of Law Staff and Faculty pray over our graduating 3L students at the annual Commissioning Ceremony. This special evening reminds our graduating 3L students that as they step out of the classroom and into their careers, God will be with them every step of the way.

Thank you to our entire Pepperdine community for pouring into these students over the last 3 years. Please keep the Class of 2026 in your prayers as they anticipate what God has in store for their futures.
