Meet Up for Graduates/Faculty
"The Meet Up" will return by popular demand again this year. It's a designated space for students and faculty to connect and celebrate before each commencement ceremony begins. It is co-sponsored by the divisions of Academic Affairs and Student Affairs and will be a relaxed and meaningful moment to honor relationships formed throughout the academic journey. Light refreshments (water and lemonade) will be provided, along with an open space for photos/mingling. Staff will be available to answer questions and offer assistance.
