Re: Commencement Exercises
Date: May 19, 2023
We are pleased to announce that the 2023 Commencement Exercises will take place under the tent on Severance Green tomorrow, Saturday, May 20, beginning at 10:30 a.m.
Due to the forecasted rain, lineup for procession will take place indoors. Students will line up on the second floor of Founders Hall, with the head of the line at the History Department, and faculty will line up on the first floor of Green Hall, with the head of the line at the stairs opposite Human Resources. Faculty are asked to please be in line by 10 a.m.
In the interest of making Commencement more sustainable, we are asking Wellesley faculty, staff, and students to download the digital Commencement program in advance (as it may be difficult to do so under the tent with so many connecting to the network). Print programs will still be available for families and friends. We also recommend bringing your own water bottle.
We look forward to welcoming our graduates’ families and friends to campus and congratulating the yellow class of 2023.
