We are excited to celebrate our grads at the 2025 convocation ceremonies in June!
Join us in celebration and volunteer at one of the ceremonies held on June 10, 11 and 12.
Convocation is the highlight of the year for grads, students and employees. Be part of this special day!
We will be recruiting volunteers for the following roles:
- Assembly area host: Receive students in The BlueShore at CapU theatre and direct grads to their program row prior to the academic procession.
All graduates must have checked in by getting their credentials, cap and gown before assembling. - Coat check: You will be located in the Birch Building, room BR170, where you will receive coats and bags from graduates to keep them secure during the ceremony.
- Gown pick up: You will be stationed in the cafeteria at the Gown Pick-up table.
Under the direction of a representative from Gaspard, you will hand out gowns, caps, tassels and hoods. - Gown drop off: Grads will come and return their gown. All you have to do is put it in a box! A representative from Gaspard will give you more instructions if necessary.
- Confetti guns: Be part of the festivities in a very special way. Shoot off the confetti guns to end the ceremony!
- Birch Building cafeteria greeter: Welcoming grads and directing them to the check-in, gown pick up and assembly area.
