Degree recipients and their guests may park in any university lot on Saturday and Sunday, May 19 and 20. For Monday, May 21, degree recipients and guests should use the satellite parking in Pierson Sage Garage and Lot 22, entering at Humphrey Street off Whitney Avenue. If you have already turned one in, thank you. Go as early as possible to increase your chances of securing appropriate attire. At Woolsey Hall, degree recipients sit by department, and then alphabetically, in the middle section on the main-floor.
Guests sit on the sides and balcony level.
Faculty representing departments and the Graduate School deans and directors sit on the stage. Ushers are available to answer questions and provide directions. The firm, Commencement Photos, has contacted most degree candidates by mail with information about purchasing their photos. Individual still and video photography by family and friends is permitted in Woolsey Hall, provided it does not interfere with the Ceremony. On Monday, May 21, information and directions will also be available at Commencement Hospitality Stations located in front of HGS and throughout the campus.
