Surrounding the logo, white text reads: “University at Buffalo School of Architecture and Planning.” Below this, in large white letters against a blue background, it states: “Class of 2026.” Further down, smaller white text provides additional details: “54th Commencement Ceremony on May 15, 2026, at 5 PM in the Center for the Arts.” The bold lettering for “Class of 2026” emphasizes the significance of this graduating class, and the overall design suggests that this image serves as an invitation or announcement for the commencement ceremony.
