Commencements
All teachers are encouraged to participate as much as possible in commencement activities and are required to take part in the academic processionals associated with the commencement activities. Faculty members should provide their own academic regalia or rent it through the campus stores. Permission to be excused from attendance must be secured in advance from the appropriate Associate Provost and is granted only in rare instances of a critical nature. This is to insure that our teaching staff will be represented in full strength when the students with whom they have been working formally complete their academic program.
