About Us

The mission of the Office of Graduation Initiatives and Commencement Planning is to coordinate the annual college-wide Commencement Ceremony and ensure that graduating students pursue the necessary steps to maneuver commencement-related processes in order to participate in the Commencement Ceremony.

The office facilitates a smooth transition to commencement by encouraging students to file for graduation, providing graduation portraits, promoting the college yearbook, administering ticket reservation, distributing tickets, and coordinating the purchase and distribution of academic regalia. In addition, the office is dedicated to cultivating commencement as an experience by facilitating events to celebrate our graduates.
