On the day before the ceremony, Friday, May 10th, mandatory practice sessions will take place. Students in the morning session must meet at 10:00 a.m., and those in the afternoon session at 1:00 p.m., both in the A Building Lobby. Graduates must also arrive an hour early on the day of the ceremony for check-in and instructions.

Graduation attire, including a cap, gown, and tassel, is available for purchase at the College Bookstore for $59.92. Graduates may personalize their caps and will receive six free invitations from the Student Services desk in the A-building.

Honor cords will be given to students with high academic achievement during check-in. Student veterans should contact Jay McDougal for their honor cords. The college advises graduates to limit guest invitations to six due to limited seating.
