Seniors, 

The University is thrilled to celebrate the outstanding achievements of the Class of 2024!  As families and guests journey to the North Country from all corners of the globe, we eagerly anticipate your Commencement. Here are a few important reminders to ensure a smooth and memorable event:

• Graduates: Please check in at Leithead Fieldhouse by 9:00 am to find your designated spot in the processional. The processional will begin promptly at 9:40 am.
• Etiquette: To ensure everyone can enjoy the ceremony, noisemakers, megaphones, air horns, and other loud devices are not permitted.
• Visibility: Signs and banners that obstruct the view of audience members or graduates are also prohibited.
• Safety: For everyone's safety, please keep aisles clear during the program.
• Conduct: As outlined in the student handbook, continuous interference that causes a prolonged interruption in programming will require action.

After the ceremony, graduates, faculty, staff, and guests are invited to gather in the Leithead Fieldhouse for a celebratory reception. Graduates will receive their diplomas at this reception.

Enjoy the last day of senior week, and congratulations once again on your remarkable achievements! 

Sincerely,  Paul
