Graduating students should report to the Yoshida Event Center
no later than 9 am June 17 to line up by their certificate or degree program. There will be volunteers in the Yoshida Event Center with signage and lists of program titles. Two lines will be alphabetic by program and will begin forming inside the Yoshida Event Center entrance closest to the parking lot. The left line order will be Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer, Associate of General Studies, Associate of Science, Associate of Science in Business, and Associate of Science in Computer Science. The right line will start with the Career-Technical programs alphabetically with Administrative Office Professional and Apprenticeship, being first.
If students are earning more than one certificate and/or degree, they may choose which program to line up in. Graduating students will enter the stadium in a double line. If students want to sit with a friend in the same program, they will line up in the same line - not side by side. Tassels on caps are worn on the right side of your mortarboard.
The volunteers will also be handing out cards needed for announcing student names and certificate/degree programs. Parking by the Yoshida Event Center is limited, so plan to arrive early. Secure all personal belongings in car trunks or leave at home. Wear weather-appropriate clothing under your gown. Ponchos will be provided if rain is in the forecast.
