Faculty

Before Commencement:

If you would like to attend Commencement to represent your department, please contact your department chair early in the semester.  We ask for the list of names from each department by March 15.

Academic regalia must be worn to participate in the processional.  The deadline to order your regalia from the University Bookstore is March 29, 2013, to avoid any extra charges.

Day of Commencement:

Please report to Brewer 253 by 8:10am for the am ceremony and 1:10pm for the pm ceremony.  Coffee will be available.

Please be dressed and ready to form the graduate greeting lines by 8:30am and 1:30pm.  You are encouraged to make the greeting line a time of celebration.  Please offer words of encouragement and congratulations to the graduates as they march through your line.  Shaking hands is discouraged simply because it will slow down the processional.
