Commencement 2019

Commencement 2019 is on Sunday, June 2. Families are encouraged to book their accommodations early, since many nearby hotels are already full. Bookmark this page for the latest information, as events are subject to change.

In January potential graduates received information about Commencement planning—including how to order their cap & gown, where they need to check in before finalizing graduation plans, and who to contact for questions. Graduates should be sure to read those materials thoroughly and follow the instructions. (See Student Information.)

In the spring, the following information will become available:

• Campus Parking Map (Parking is available in all campus lots and in the Knox County Courthouse lot at the corner of Cherry & South Streets.)
• Commencement Weekend Schedule and Senior Week activities
• Post-Commencement Picnic Lunch Reservations (Lunch reservations are optional and typically cost about $10 per person.)
