The Recession - All graduates will recess from the Quadrangle under the direction of the commencement marshals. Graduates should arrange to meet friends and relatives at the individual receptions noted in the program. Distribution of Diplomas - Diplomas will be distributed at the dean's reception. If a graduate will not be able to attend Commencement, their diploma will be held in the Student Records Office, Women's Building, Room 50 until June 1, 2001. Diplomas that are not picked up by that time will be mailed to the address listed on your Intent to Graduate form.
Information regarding wheelchair rental is also available.
An American Sign Language interpreter will be present during all ceremonies and by request during individual School ceremonies. Emergency Services - A special Aid Station with a nurse and campus police will be located in the southeast corner of the Quadrangle near Busch Hall. During the Commencement Ceremony an ambulance service is in attendance in case of any emergency situation. Anyone needing assistance should come to the Aid Station. Pictures - During the Commencement Ceremony we ask that parents and guests, out of consideration for others, not come to the front of the stage or stand on the ramps leading to the stage for pictures.
