Mon Apr 29 19:18:01 UTC 2024


Good afternoon,

It's hard to believe SUNY Plattsburgh at Queensbury's joint commencement
ceremony with SUNY Adirondack is just 12 days away! We cannot wait to
celebrate the success of our December '23 and May '24 graduates. Below
please find key details for the big day!

CELEBRATING YOUR SUCCESS!

Senior Send Off: On Monday May 6 and Wednesday May 8 graduates are invited
to stop by our office for Senior-Send Off! Light refreshments will be
served and a small gift, sponsored by the Alumni Association, will be given
to each graduate that stops by.

Cap Decorating: Starts today! The Plattsburgh Activities Committee will
sponsor a cap decorating contest, supplies for which are available April 29
- May 10 in Bryan Hall 120. To participate in the contest, email a photo of
your decorated cap to branchcampus at plattsburgh.edu. Photos will be posted
to social media the Monday after commencement for a vote; the winner will
receive a diploma frame valued at $200!


COMMENCEMENT CEREMONY & PARKING

Date: Saturday May 11, 2024, 11:00 a.m.   Location: Cool Insuring Arena
(Glens Falls Civic Center)

Parking around the arena is very limited. Graduates can be dropped off in
front of the main doors.  Parking in front of the building is for
wheelchair accessible parking only. Families can park in the nearby St.
Mary’s Church parking lot or surrounding parking areas.


ARRIVAL & CHECK-IN

There is no rehearsal or tickets for commencement although students who
wish to attend who have not already RSVPed should do so no later than May 1
at bit.ly/2H0PxlS.

Still need a cap, gown, or tassel? Visit SUNY Adirondack's bookstore
in-person or SUNY Plattsburgh's bookstore online!


Graduating students should use the main entrance on Glen Street and report
inside to Heritage Hall no later than 10:15 a.m. for check-in.

At 10:30 a.m. graduates will line up in Heritage Hall to process into the
arena precisely at 11:00 a.m.  During line up you will receive your name
card, which you will later give to Michelle Peter, who will announce your
name when you walk across the stage. Faculty and staff responsible for the
procession will help guide you where to sit and when to stand. Here is what
you can expect during the ceremony:

   -

   Faculty Marshals will lead students to the stage. Students will hand
   their name card to the person at the lower podium.
   -

   When the announcer calls your name, walk on stage, advancing toward the
   Provost.
   -

   When you reach the Provost, you will receive a red, Plattsburgh diploma
   cover in your left hand and shake hands with your right. You will then
   continue past the Provost, off the stage and return to your seat.
   -

   Masters and graduate certificate students will be hooded on stage.
   Please carry your hood over your right arm as you process into the
   arena.  Bring your hood with you to the stage when it is time to receive
   your diploma.  Your hood will be placed over your head at that time by Dr.
   Jean Ann Hunt and the Dean of EHHS.


All diplomas will be mailed approximately 6 weeks following the end of the
semester.  Please be sure the Registrar’s Office has your correct mailing
address.
