Commencement

We are hoping to celebrate with some form of in-person event but are also actively planning for a variety of virtual alternatives.

Current pandemic guidelines in Virginia do not allow for large gatherings and we are monitoring the situation regularly as we plan. While cases of COVID-19 continue to increase daily in the region and around the country, the recent approval of vaccines gives us hope for the future.

We are proud of your accomplishments and want to gather on campus for proper recognition and honor. Your safety, and that of your family and friends, is of the utmost importance and so we must be cautiously optimistic and plan accordingly.

We’ll be in touch as the situation evolves and our planning comes together.
