The University Staff, Faculty and the Platform Party will return this compliment by parting into two lines for you to pass through after you have graduated. Once the Faculty has passed, simply pair up again and proceed to march to the row to which you are directed, and please move into it quickly. Name cards and programs will be placed on your chairs. Seating arrangements will be posted in the SportsCenter hallways. Remain standing until you receive further instructions.
Women never remove the cap.
Listen for further instructions from the Platform Party. As soon as the last person in the first row has departed the row, the next row behind will do the same as above. Applause will follow. Remain standing in acknowledgement. All stand and men remove their mortarboards.
