Senior Class – Parents/Families Commencement Information

ATTENTION SENIOR PARENTS – Commencement Information!

The 2012 Senior Commencement festivities will be held on Mother’s Day Weekend, May 10, 11, 12 and 13, 2012 (Friday through Sunday). Tickets are not required for attendance and seniors may invite as many guests as they wish.  Friday events include the Social Justice Missioning Ceremony, the ROTC Commissioning Ceremony, and the Dessert Social.  Saturday events include: the Presidential Reception & Toast to Our Seniors and the Baccalaureate Mass (all are welcome). Sunday’s Commencement ceremony begins with the academic procession at 9:35 a.m. in the Spokane Arena, and the Nursing Pinning Ceremony on campus in the afternoon.   You will receive a letter from Academic Vice President Killen and me with more detailed information about Commencement . PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make your hotel and travel reservations as soon as possible, as we know that our academic neighbor will also be hosting Commencement activities the same weeked. Visit www.gonzaga.edu/commencement to get all the latest information. Choose Senior Commencement after you finish reading the main page, and be sure to check out the FAQ section.  As one of the advisors to the seniors, I will be e-mailing them throughout the year about lots of Commencement “things” and I frequently suggest that they forward a copy to you to keep you in the loop.

Please feel free to contact me at 509-313-5571 or pruschs@gonzaga.edu if you have any questions.  We are all looking forward to celebrating with you and your senior next May.
