Commencement

To celebrate the graduates in our house, the Department of Theatre & Dance holds a special commencement ceremony annually in the spring. Our department's ceremony will be held May 9th 2024 @ 2:30pm in the Roe Green Theatre.

Prepare for Graduation

While our staff can pull graduation information, we double check with students in case they want to walk in the spring departmental ceremony but graduated in December, or plan to graduate in summer. Please send in our Commencement Participation Form to make sure you're included in our ceremony!
