All students who have completed degree or credential requirements for December 2012, or have filed a Request to Graduate for January, May, or August 2013 before the deadlnes are invited to participate in Commencement 2013, and will have their names listed in the program. Programs will be distributed at the ceremony to the graduates and their guests at no charge.
(Candidates for December 2013 graduation are welcome to attend the ceremonies in May 2013, but the names of those graduating in the next academic year: December '13 through August '14, will appear in the 2014 program.)
No Tickets for guests are required.
GUESTS: TICKETS WILL BE REQUIRED FOR REENTRY TO THE VENUE. PLEASE SEE AN USHER BEFORE EXITING.
Congratulations on your great achievement! We want to ensure your commencement ceremony is a great experience and memory for both you and your guests. For this reason we would like to recommend that you inform your guests that when leaving campus they avoid accessing the 405 Freeway from 7th Street because of construction. Alternative routes are both Palo Verde Avenue and Bellflower Boulevard, from which both the 405 North and South can be accessed.
Because of the large number of graduates at the ceremonies, we ask that each student limit the number of guests to 10 or under so that all attendees may have a pleasant experience.
If you are unable to participate in the ceremony for your own College, you may attend another ceremony. Once the ceremony begins, you are expected to remain in your seat until its conclusion.
