Commencement will be held under a tent on Boyden Quadrangle rain or shine, except in the instance of extreme weather conditions. Listen to AM radio station WBZ 1030 or WBZ-TV Channel 4, or call 508.531.1777 for weather-related information. An Announcement will also be posted on the commencement Web site.

Both Wide screen viewing areas, Horace Mann Auditorium in Boyden Hall and Rondileau Campus Center Auditorium are inside options for those guests without a ticket under the tent. Both locations are handicap accessible.

We encourage both graduates and guests to watch the weather forecast and dress according to the ever changing New England Weather. The weather is traditionally cool. Keep in mind the tent is outdoors, and although under cover, everyone will be exposed to the temperature.
