Memories:

Graduation Photos
Candid Color Photography will photograph each graduate as they receive their diploma, and again after they have left the stage. You may view the proofs online through the Candid Color Photography Web site, or you may reach them at 800-345-1443. You can also register to have a proof sent to you or a family member. An offer to purchase these photographs is mailed to the address the student provides, but there is no obligation to place an order.

Please Note: Guests will not be allowed into the graduate/faculty section on the floor for photographs until the ceremony has concluded.

Graduation DVD
There will be an event DVD available two weeks after the event. More details to be posted soon.

What is the dress code?
Please wear business-casual style clothing under the gowns. Dark shoes are appropriate.

Is seating available for handicapped guests?
Seating for handicapped guests is available on the arena floor. Please arrive early (doors open 1 hr. 15 min. prior to ceremony), as seating is first-come, first-served. Ushers will escort handicapped guests to available seating.

How many tickets may I get for the ceremony?

Do graduates bring name cards?
Graduates will receive a name card to fill out before the ceremony. Please include your first and last name, home address and e-mail address.

Please print clearly and fill them out completely.

Where can I park?
Parking is limited on the north side of the Freede Wellness and Activity Center due to construction. Lots are located to the east and south of the facility. Please refer to the campus map for details.

Can I take pictures of my son/daughter while they receive their diploma?
The area to the left of the stage is available for snapshots of graduates. Time your appearance at the photography area so that minimal time is spent there and other family members can have an opportunity to photograph their graduate.

Candid Color Photography will be on stage to take a photograph of each graduate receiving their diploma. An additional photograph will be taken after the graduate leaves the stage. Proofs will be mailed to the graduate and will be available online at CandidColorPhotography.com.
