Commencement marks an important milestone in the lives of our students, and all members of the campus community are invited to celebrate with the graduates and their families.

The presence of the faculty has always been a strong tradition at graduation ceremonies. The centuries-old rituals of the faculty procession in academic attire led by the senior member carrying the University mace convey the continuity of academic tradition from medieval times to the present.

Staff and administrators are invited guests to the commencement ceremony, and many of them have forged strong bonds with our students.

Plan now to participate in the 152nd Annual Commencement at 2 p.m. on December 14 in Pucillo Gymnasium. Details for faculty, including rental orders for robes, are found in the links at the right. Staff and administrators should check the ticket information link at the left.
