Masks are not required at commencement ceremonies but are encouraged following COVID exposure, for high-risk individuals, and, as always, for anyone who feels more comfortable wearing one.
If you are feeling unwell or experiencing coronavirus symptoms (sore throat, headache, runny nose, fever, shortness of breath, and coughing), please get tested before coming to campus.
For those unable to attend in person, commencement ceremonies will be streamed live on the college’s YouTube channel, Facebook, and available for post-ceremony viewing online.
