For Faculty and Staff

Check back for the 2026 Commencement schedule!

Faculty and Senior Administrative Staff wear the regalia of their highest-earned degree.

While many own their regalia, rental regalia is available for those participating in the ceremonies. Information about rental options will be sent to participating faculty.

Staff support the weekend activities in various ways: catering, dining, housekeeping, facilities services, multimedia, and campus safety all perform their regular duties while other staff volunteer as marshals and ushers. Staff are welcome to attend all weekend events!

Commencement activities are held on Friday and Saturday each year.
