Commencement Rehearsal

Rehearsal for Commencement will be held Friday, May 17th at 1:00 p.m. Marshals, under the direction of Dolores Passarelli, will be on hand to assist you. You do not need to bring your regalia to rehearsal. If weather permits (anything short of rain) please report as follows:

All degree candidates should go to the baseball and softball fields, located behind Gaige Hall. Look for the flag that matches the color of your hood and tassel. We will use the ball field fences to post signs for the line of march.

Behind each flag, candidates should line up alphabetically within each degree. Anything that you, as an individual, can do to speed the process by getting into the right spot will be greatly appreciated! This will help to insure that when your name is called during the ceremony, you will be appearing on the platform just at the right moment for family and friends to see you.
