you RSVP now.
To ensure that the ceremony runs smoothly for our graduates and their families, please:
Let us know if you are attending.
If you already have academic regalia, please indicate it on the RSVP form so that adequate seating may be reserved for faculty and staff.
Order Regalia.
If you need academic regalia, please RSVP and order online now. November 16 is the final day to order. If you are unable to attend commencement, please notify the Bookstore so that your regalia can be used if needed.
Pick up Regalia.
Faculty and staff should pick up their regalia in the Campus Bookstore. Bookstore

Please arrive at Nold Athletic Complex with your cap and gown by 10:15 a.m.
Return Regalia.
A representative from the Bookstore will be in Nold Hall Room 102 to collect all faculty/staff
regalia once the ceremony concludes.
Volunteer to Assist.
Volunteers will help line up students, adjust hoods, seat parents and dignitaries,
and guide our guests. If you can help, contact Jenn Infante for more information:

Though attendance at Commencement is not mandatory, it is strongly encouraged as a
means of recognizing the achievements of our students. Their newly earned degrees are the result of your dedication and hard work.
