Since commencement is a formal affair in which the University honors its students, it is considered inappropriate for food or alcoholic beverages to be present. Please do not spoil the commencement exercises for others. When providing the diploma mailing address, May 29 - June 1, degree candidates will be given a card permitting the rental of a cap and gown. The card will be used the following week when caps and gowns are available for rental from Willsie Company. It will not be necessary for November and March candidates to order caps and gowns by mail.
Graduates are welcome to keep their mortarboards and tassels as souveirs.
Orders or questions concerning these items should be directed to the Bookstore staff at 303.871.3251. The University is required by the U.S. Department of Education to gather information on the plans of its graduates. All rights reserved. Revised April 10, 2000.
