The Department of Theatre Arts holds its own commencement ceremony on the final Saturday of the spring term. The department ceremony is scheduled at a different time than the ceremonies for CLAS and the Graduate College, so students can attend both ceremonies if they so choose. Students graduating in the spring semester, or at the end of the summer or fall terms, are invited to participate. The ceremony includes speeches by faculty and members of the graduating class, a slide show and a reception immediately following in the Theatre Department lobby. Friends and families are encouraged to attend.

Doors will open a half hour prior to ceremony start. No tickets required.
