Lineup for both the May 18 Graduate and Undergraduate Commencement ceremonies will now take place in Gill Gymnasium (Old Gill) due to the impending weather forecast.

Students, please report with your cap, gown, and hood for robing/line up:

  • Graduate Ceremony at 9 a.m.
  • Undergraduate Ceremony at 1 p.m.

Please look for flags/signage indicating which entrance into Gill Gymnasium should be used. You will be directed to the appropriate table when you arrive to pick up your name/line-up card. Remember to listen to instructions given by the faculty marshals.

All umbrellas and rain gear should be given to guests prior to picking up your name/line-up card. These items will not be allowed to process with you into the ceremony.

Please note, these changes DO NOT affect your guests. Doors will still open to Gill Center one hour prior to the start of the ceremony (9 a.m. for the Graduate Ceremony and 1 p.m. for the Undergraduate Ceremony).

Additional details about Commencement can be found on the Commencement webpage.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
