Southwestern College Commencement ceremonies are scheduled for Sunday, May 9.  Due to the construction of Jantz Stadium, the commencement ceremonies will be held in Stewart Field House and will be divided into three different groups.
           
Commencement times and groups include:
• 1 p.m.—Graduate students

• 2:30 p.m.—Undergraduate students earning B.A., B.S.N., B.G.S., and B.S. in natural sciences.

• 4:30 p.m.—Undergraduate students earning B.S. degrees (except B.S. in natural sciences)
           
Since seating in Stewart Field House is limited, guests will be required to have tickets for admission.  Open seating (tickets not required) will begin 20 minutes before each ceremony.
           
Commencement activities will be broadcast live on channel 20 in Winfield as well as through closed circuit television on the Southwestern campus.  Viewing locations include the Java Jinx in the Roy L. Smith Student Center, Richardson Auditorium, Harold and Mary Ellen Deets Memorial Library lobby, and the campus life lounge in the lower level of the Roy L. Smith Student Center.  A Webcast of the ceremony can be viewed by following the Commencement link at www.moundbuilder.com.    

SC’s Honors Convocation will be Saturday, May 8, at 4 p.m., in Richardson Auditorium.  Although this is a traditional main campus program, professional studies learners who qualified for the Dean’s Honor Roll for fall 2009 will be recognized on the printed program.

Baccalaureate services will be held Sunday, May 9, in Richardson Auditorium of the Christy Administration Building.  The service will begin at 10 a.m.

Inductees to the Order of the Mound will be honored on Sunday at 11:30 a.m. at the Cole Mound Plaza.  In case of rain, Messenger Recital Hall in the Darbeth Fine Arts Center will host the ceremony.    The Order of the Mound recognizes students graduating in the top 10% of the class.
