Notes: General information about the Valedictory Service can be found in HUA 943.15.

As a result of wartime conditions, there were several changes in Commencement of 1943. Class Day exercises were held on January 9, 1943, the day before a Valedictory Service held for members of the classes of 1943, 1944, 1945 and 1946. Commencement was held on May 27, and only one honorary degree was given. The usual undergraduate commencement parts were omitted, and a Latin greeting was instead given by professor emeritus E. K. Rand.
