Visitors can tour buildings, take in art gallery exhibits and attend special programs.
Commencement ceremonies Sunday, May 23, at 11 a.m. will honor approximately 300 candidates for bachelor of arts degrees. The program will be held in front of Memorial Hall on Boyer Avenue or, in case of inclement weather, in Cordiner Hall, where seating will be limited to graduates and their guests. The commencement address will be presented by James O. Freedman, president, emeritus, of Dartmouth College. Freedman, one of America's most noted intellectuals, is perhaps best known for his exploration of how the lessons and the habits of mind instilled by a liberal education can give direction and meaning to one's life. In his 1996 award-winning book, Idealism and Liberal Education, he sets down American ideals that have informed his own life and values and examines the content and character of liberal education.
