To all faculty, staff, and administrators: online registration for Commencement marchers and volunteer ushers is now open. Members of the Class of 2015 eagerly anticipate celebrating their graduation at the 143rd Commencement on Saturday, May 16, in the Sports Arena. Your participation is important and will make the occasion memorable for our graduates and their families.

Please celebrate with our graduates by marching in the processional or serving as a volunteer usher to help with graduate lineup or to greet and guide guests.

Three ceremonies will celebrate December 2014 and January 2015 graduates, and May and August 2015 potential degree candidates. Bachelor's candidates are recognized at both a 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. ceremony, and master's and C.A.S. candidates are honored at 6:00 p.m. A festive reception follows each ceremony where graduates, their guests, and faculty and staff gather to continue the celebration.

Marchers can register on the Commencement website, as well as find information on academic regalia and Robing Room directives for Commencement day. Regalia rentals should be ordered by April 17.

Volunteer ushers can register and view rehearsal information, attire guidelines, and Commencement day reporting times on the website.

Thank you for your dedication to "being there" for our graduates on their special day.
