We warmly encourage faculty and staff to participate in UMBC’s winter 2013 Commencement Ceremonies. As you know, these events mean a great deal to our students and their parents and guests. I hope you will make a special effort to share in their celebration.
- Graduate Commencement will be held at 10 a.m. on Thursday, December 19 in the RAC
- Undergraduate Commencement will be held at 10 a.m. on Friday, December 20 in the RAC
ORDERING REGALIA: As in the past, UMBC will subsidize the rental of academic regalia for faculty, and administrative and associate staff. The deadline has passed for ordering regalia without a late fee, but it may still be ordered with payment of $25. Please note that it will not be possible to order regalia after December 6. Regalia will be ready for pick-up in the Bookstore beginning December 9 through December 16. (Regalia will not be available for pick-up at the RAC.) Please use the online Commencement RSVP form to place your order. If you have any questions, please call Gail Dupree at the Bookstore, 410-455-3807.
RSVP FOR MARCHING IN THE PROCESSION: Even if you do not order regalia, we need to know that you intend to march in the Commencement procession, so that appropriate seating arrangements can be made. Please give your RSVP on the website response form for Commencement by December 6, 2013.
Thank you for your support of UMBC’s Commencement Ceremonies and graduates.
