Seating for Commencement

There will be an area of seating in the Sports and Recreation Center for family and guests of graduates. This area is a designated area of seating, not numbered seating. Therefore, tickets are not necessary. The Sports and Recreation Center will open at 7:00 a.m. for seating.

As a courtesy to all guests in attendance, we ask that seats not be held for others. If you require accessible seating or parking accommodations, please notify Emily Perrelle in the Office of Student Affairs before May 15.

Photography

Since the Sports and Recreation Center is not well suited for long range photography, Rose-Hulman has hired a professional photographer to take individual pictures on stage as graduates receive their diploma from the President. These will be available a few weeks later at: https://www.gradimages.com/ .

Do I need tickets for commencement

Tickets are not required. Seating is first-come, first-served.

How and when do I order regalia or other Commencement items?

​The bookstore will host a Commencement fair March 12, where students will order Commencement-related items. 

For students not on campus during that time (have graduated early, etc.), there will be a link on the bookstore website they can order from. This will not go live until the Commencement fair.
