Grad Fair is something no graduating student should miss so please remind your senior to attend this important fair on campus. Every spring this opportunity is one-stop-shopping for everything your student needs to prepare for May commencement.
At
Grad Fair, students can purchase their cap/gown (a requirement to
participate in the ceremony), order graduation announcements, diploma
frames, class rings, ceremony DVDs and receive additional information
about becoming a PLU alumni.
Parents and graduates should keep an eye out for a couple of mailings over the next few months-- including a program of events for the graduation weekend (May 25-27).
Graduation is set for May 27, 2007 at the Tacoma Dome with the ceremony beginning at 2:30p.m.; doors open at 1:00p.m. and no tickets are required for admission.
The registrar’s office (253-535-7131) coordinates graduation and can answer general questions about the graduation ceremony. The PLU web-site also lists helpful information about graduation.
