The University Registrar's Office will provide the University Bookstore with a list of all May 1997 degree candidates who are eligible to receive regalia. All caps, gowns, and tassels should be picked up in the Bookstore by noon on Wednesday, May 7. You should wear comfortable clothes under the gown, and wear nice, but comfortable shoes. Tassels should be worn on the right side of the cap until the degree is conferred and should thereafter be worn on the left. Undergraduates may keep their regalia.
Parking is free to the graduates and their guests.
Only one parking pass is needed for each car. General seating for guests will not be reserved so you should urge your guests to arrive early. Students are not limited in the number of guests they may invite, and individual guest tickets are not required. Please refer to the enclosed map for location of the assembly area. Undergraduates will assemble at the outside rear of the Special Events Center, beneath the walkway.
