The Department of Theatre Arts holds its own graduation celebration on the final Saturday of the spring term. The departmental celebration is scheduled at a different time than the commencement ceremonies for College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the Graduate College, so students can attend both their collegiate ceremony and this celebration if they so choose. Students graduating in the spring semester, or at the end of the summer or fall terms, are invited to participate.

The ceremony includes speeches by faculty and members of the graduating class, a slide show and a reception immediately following in the Theatre Department lobby. Friends and families are encouraged to attend.

Doors will open a half hour prior to the start of the event. No tickets required.
