In Case of Inclement Weather

If weather conditions do not permit an outdoor ceremony, commencement activities will be held in the Levine Center for Wellness and Recreation. Two graduation rain tickets will be available for pickup from each graduate’s Dean’s office in mid-April.

If we need to move the ceremony indoors, we strongly encourage family and guests without a rain ticket to watch from home due to the significant reduction in seats available. However, overflow seating with a closed-circuit video feed of the ceremony will be available for guests who come to campus without a rain ticket.
