Graduation has been postponed – it will not occur on May 9. We do hope to reschedule the ceremonies. Once we have more information, we will inform our Lakeland community. If you have not ordered your graduation apparel, please hold off until we make final decisions about the ceremony. There will be a new deadline. More details to come when we have them.
A president's reception for all students, their families and guests, faculty and staff will be held in the Wehr Center Fieldhouse following each ceremony.
