Cochrane addressing a graduating class (bottom right)
A graduating class was a group of students who graduated from an educational institution in the same year.
In 2063, Zefram Cochrane gave a commencement address to the graduating class of Princeton University. (ENT: "Regeneration")
Michael Burnham was part of the Vulcan Science Academy graduating class of 2249. (DIS: "Lethe")
Christopher Pike was part of the graduating class of 3201.14. (DIS: "Brother")
Teller, Corrigan, Timothy, Mike, and James T. Kirk were members of the same Starfleet Academy graduating class, a fact Kirk commented on when encountering the other four at Starbase 11 in 2267. (TOS: "Court Martial")
Garrovick and Rizzo, who both later served on the USS Enterprise, were good friends who graduated the Academy together. (TOS: "Obsession")
William T. Riker graduated 8th in the graduating class of 2357. (PIC: "The Bounty")
In 2368, Julian Bashir became salutatorian and Elizabeth Lense valedictorian of their graduation class from Starfleet Medical Academy. Nearly every member of Bashir's class hoped for the chief medical officer post on the USS Lexington, Bashir himself being the exception, which eventually went to Lense after she got the highest mark on her final exam. Though Bashir got his desired post, CMO for Deep Space 9, as of 2371, it still bothered him that had Lense requested that assignment, she could have gotten it. (DS9: "Explorers")
