Weather, Footwear, & Attire

Weather

Our commencement ceremonies are held indoors. At the Winter Commencement, if the forecast is clear of rain, graduating student lineup will be held outdoors. If the forecast calls for rain, graduating student lineup will be moved indoors. If the forecast calls for warm temperatures, we encourage our graduating students and their guests to drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and wear sunscreen to protect themselves from the sun while outdoors.

Footwear & Attire

We recommend our graduating students wear sensible shoes as there may be steps and varying surface textures they will be walking on. Guests and graduating students should dress in clothing appropriate for the occasion and for the weather.
