The School of Education will hold our first fall graduation ceremony on December 12, 2009, 10:30-12:30, in the Kansas Union. All undergraduate and graduate students who will complete their degree this December are invited to attend. We hope you will be able to participate in this inaugural event.

Schedule:

10:30-11:30 Reception in the lobby of the Kansas Union (4th level). Refreshments will be served.

11:30 Ceremony begins in Woodruff Auditorium. Students will sit in a reserved section, guests will select their own seats in the non-reserved section. (We will not have a procession.)

Please plan on wearing academic regalia - caps, gowns (masters and doctoral degree recipients will also wear hoods). You may purchase them at the Kansas Union. [Doctoral regalia is available for rental, however the deadline is October 31, 2009. After that a late fee will be added.]

If you wish to participate, please send the following information to Paula Naughtin, pnaught@ku.edu, by December 1.

We hope to make this a memorable and enjoyable occasion for you. Please let me know if you have any questions. Don’t forget! You must return the following information via e-mail by December 1!
