Graduation

Begins August 16, 2007 at 3:15 p.m.

All candidates for graduation should assemble at designated areas in the parking lots located north of the Smoot Administration Building (ASB) by 3:10 p.m. Programs will be provided for each candidate at the Marriott Center. You might want to keep your program and take it with you to your college convocation on Friday.

Candidates for graduate degrees are to line up in the parking lot on the north side of the ASB. Doctoral candidates will line up at the front of the line, followed by juris doctorate and then master's candidates. You will not need to line up alphabetically.

Candidates for bachelor's degrees are to form lines in the parking lots north of the ASB according to college. (Please see map below.)

The board of trustees, color guard, deans, directors, and special guests will assemble in the designated area immediately north of the ASB. The remainder of the faculty will gather on the sidewalks east and west of the ASB.

Should it rain and be too wet to line up outside, all faculty and graduates are requested to be in their designated seating areas inside the Marriott Center by 3:45 p.m. (Please see Marriott Center map below.)

Families and friends are invited to take their seats in the Marriott Center and view the academic procession via large-screen television. Doing so will reduce congestion along the path of the parade. Doors will open at 2 p.m., and parents and other guests should be seated by 3:45 p.m.
