The graduate does NOT need a ticket. Any guest holding a ticket will be seated by the Philharmonic staff. The rest of the guests will have to wait at the door and will be given the opportunity to fill in the empty seats. Once the seats are filled, guests may sit in the Daniels Pavilion, which has a huge screen television and sound system to view the graduation. It is suggested that small children be left at home.
Special consideration needs to be made if handicap seating is needed.
Please make us aware of your situation. The student speaker for the graduation ceremony will be decided by the Graduation Committee. All students who meet these requirements will have an information packet and application form mailed from Dr. Bowman. The Graduation Ceremony Graduation programs will be distributed to the guests as they enter Hayes Hall. The program will list all graduates by program and list the order of exercises.
