Ceremony Attire
Attire for Graduates
- Although you will be wearing your cap and gown, It is important that what you wear underneath is comfortable and appropriate for the ceremony. Plan for it to be a warm day, so wear something light (but up to school dress code) underneath.

- Comfortable shoes (no flip-flops or casual sandals will be allowed). High heels will sink into the turf, so make sure it is a wedge only
