Commencement programs will not list names of graduates

This year, the College will not print the names of all graduates and their honors in the traditional printed program distributed on Commencement Day. According to a College press release, the “extremely short amount of time” between the close of grades and Commencement has always presented a challenge for printing programs in time for the ceremony. This year, the College was not able to secure a printing company that could produce the programs in time for Commencement.

While the program will list the ceremony’s speakers and order of events, the list of all graduates and honors will only appear on Commencement websites as well as in a printed commemorative program that students and families can order for delivery free of charge after June 10. The College will consider possible adjustments for future commencements, according to the press release.
