It is a long-standing tradition at Ohio State for graduates to personally receive their diplomas from their college deans. Graduates will not return to their seats after receiving their diplomas. To avoid congestion in the diploma-awarding area, guests must remain in their seats. It is advised that you prearrange a place to meet with your graduate after the ceremony that is away from the College Road area.
