A wonderful tradition of our Commencement Week celebration is the excitement, spirit and camaraderie of the class graduation banquets. The banquet reservation and order form will be available in March. Graduates can reserve one free ticket to cover their banquet admission, plus one free guest ticket.  Additional tickets will cost approximately $25.00. Children’s meal tickets are $10.  Graduates must reserve all tickets in advance, including those provided on a complimentary basis.  Please be aware that banquet orders must be accompanied with credit card payment.  Friends and family who wish to make banquet reservations may do so through the college offices listed below.  If you have any questions about banquet ticket availability or banquet questions in general, please utilize the contact information listed below for your respective college.

In addition to providing an opportunity to celebrate as a class, the banquets include a program during which major awards are announced.
