On May 19 or May 20 between 11am and 5pm, we invite graduates to “walk across” the Upper Lobby of the PAC and have their photos taken with President Milagros Peña. We are striving to create a festive setting for the occasion, with college banners as the backdrop and the opportunity to capture your achievement in a photograph and connect with classmates. Students must schedule a time slot on May 19 or May 20 between 11am and 5pm. We will host twenty students per 15 minute time slot. Please book your appointment by Friday, May 7. This is an appointment and graduate only event, but will be livestreamed for families of participants to view. Proofs will be available 48-72 hours after the event. If you have ordered regalia, please wear it for the occasion. This special photo session will occur before the virtual commencement on May 21.

Students who are not on campus this semester are more than welcome to take part in this photo opportunity. However, for safety reasons, all students must have a negative test result within 72 hours or have been pool tested on campus on May 13.

We look forward to sharing our Virtual Commencement on May 21 at noon. You will be hearing from us to get photos from each of you to include in that ceremony. We encourage online watch parties among programs and cohorts, so we can gather together as a community to celebrate your special day.

Regalia is now available for purchase.
