Graduating students will get the opportunity to celebrate with Khoury before Commencement to have their name called, walk across the stage, and have a commemorative photo taken.
After the ceremony concludes, students are welcome to proceed to the Husky Hospitality Hub (at Cabot Center) with their guests to continue their graduation experience with refreshments, music, and photo opportunities. The Husky Hospitality Hub will be open for 1.5 hours after the end of each College celebration.
What is the difference between Celebrations and Commencement?
College Celebrations are recognitions of individual achievement where graduate names are called and graduates cross the stage. Celebrations are hosted by the college or special interest group. University Graduate and Undergraduate Commencement ceremonies are the university-wide ceremonies at which President confers degrees. Doctor of Philosophy, School of Law, and College of Professional Studies graduates have their names read and cross the stage at their own Commencement ceremonies.
