WKU announces commencement dates and times
February 22, 2021
WKU announced Monday the graduation ceremonies for Fall 2020 and Spring and Summer 2021 will take place on May 1.
They will be separated by college at the Houchens Industries – L.T. Smith Stadium.
Students in Gordon Ford College of Business and the College of Health and Human Services will graduate at 10 a.m. Students in Potter College of Arts and Letters, the College of Education and Behavioral Sciences and Ogden College of Science and Engineering will graduate at 6 p.m.
The rescheduled ceremony for the Spring and Summer 2020 graduates is set for May 8. All colleges will graduate together at 10 a.m. The Office of the Registrar will determine the location depending on the amount of graduates attending.
These decisions were made with the results from a survey sent to the 2020 and 2021 graduates about safety concerns regarding graduation ceremonies.
The Office of the Registrar will be asking graduates for confirmation about graduation plans closer to the date. For more information, go to the WKU commencement website.
![Students cheer for Senator at Large Jaden Marshall after being announced as the Intercultural Student Engagement Center Senator for the 24th Senate on Wednesday, April 17 in the Senate Chamber in DSU. Ive done everything in my power, Ive said it 100 times, to be for the students, Marshall said. So, not only to win, but to hear that reaction for me by the other students is just something that shows people actually care about me [and] really support me.](https://wkuherald.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/jadenmarshall-600x422.jpg)
