To make this ceremony more meaningful, we ask all guests and participants to avoid unnecessary conversation and movement during the exercises. Please withhold your applause during the presentation of degrees until each degree group is acknowledged and the candidates have returned to their seats. Following the singing of the Alma Mater, there is a Recessional for the platform party and all degree recipients. We ask the audience to remain seated during this period. For your assistance, an Emergency Medical Services station is available in the Nicks Building. Please ask an usher for assistance. THE COMMENCEMENT PROGRAM Presiding: Dr. Charles A.
