Welcome Graduates

Grad FairThe Grad Fest is presented by the Alumni Association and Hornet Bookstore as a one-stop-shop for graduates designed to help assist and prepare them for their graduation needs. These needs range from answering general commencement questions to graduate school information.   

Many on-campus affiliates and off-campus universities will be present. This provides graduates an excellent opportunity to make sure that final paperwork is in order for commencement, that their name will be listed in the commencement program, and other important details.
