Commencement

Dissolved: As of the 2022-2023 academic year, this standing committee was dissolved. It will become an advisory body and include those stakeholders from across the university who already assist in ensuring the ceremonies are planned appropriately. 

The Commencement Committee continuously reviews the scheduling and programming of the commencement exercises and associated events particularly in regard to the form and content of the commencement exercise itself. Members attend commencement in order to recommend needed improvements.

Meeting schedule:
The Commencement Committee meets once in the fall semester and once in the spring semester. The meetings typically take place on a Monday or Tuesday evening from 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm in late March and late October.
