We look forward to celebrating the commencement class of 2022 and their loved ones at in-person ceremonies. We are excited at the opportunity to come together and watch our graduates cross the stage. There will be two ceremonies, one for bachelor candidates and master candidates.
Vaccination Policy: We will be following Sydney Goldstein Theater guidelines on vaccination mandates. Currently all guests will need to show proof of vaccinations and wear masks while indoors. To help minimize the rush, we will be opening theater doors earlier to allow folks time to provide proof of vaccination in line and enter the theater to find their seats. Additionally, we will continue to follow CDC guidelines and local health directives.
Eligible Graduating Students: Students who will complete their academic requirements in fall 2021, spring 2022, and summer 2022 are eligible to participate in this yearβs commencement ceremonies. We encourage you to connect with Student Records to ensure you are on the pathway to completing your academic requirements and are eligible to participate in commencement.
As lessons learned from the previous years, the event is subject to change and we will be sure to keep folks updated. Please be on the look out for more information in the upcoming months.
