Graduation Disclaimer: Participation in the commencement ceremony is optional and is not an official verification of graduation requirements. While every effort is made to ensure accuracy in this Commencement program, printing deadlines may result in the omission of some names and the use of names of persons not completing graduation requirements as intended.
