Department Graduations

Two graduates hugging

In addition to the campuswide Commencements in May and December, many departments and student groups hold smaller, more personal graduations in the spring semester only. Each group handles its event independently, and graduates can attend the campuswide Commencement, department graduation, or both. Ask your loved ones about their plans.

The Gender Equity Resource Center and our partners are excited to invite you to the 24th Lavender Graduation Celebration. Everyone is invited, and there is no fee to attend! In order to manage capacity, we need all those who plan to attend to fill out this registration. Everyone must register — graduates, guests, current students, family, etc — everyone, please. The space is limited and priority for entering will be given to those graduates who register by April 26th (or whenever we reach capacity, whichever comes first) and then to everyone else on the list in order of when they registered.

No academic regalia (caps and gowns) are required, but feel free to be as fabulous as you wish! Graduating undergraduate students will receive a rainbow tassel. Graduating graduate students will receive a lavender cord.
