Bon Appètit will have light breakfast and celebratory drinks available for purchase in the Cook Stadium Concession area beginning at 7:30 a.m. Also, be sure to grab a complimentary cup of coffee in Hulbert Arena on your way in.

These will be available a few weeks later at: https://www.gradimages.com/ .

Seating for Commencement
There will be an area of seating in the Sports and Recreation Center for family and guests of graduates. This area is a designated area of seating, not numbered seating. Therefore, tickets are not necessary. The Sports and Recreation Center will open at 7:00 a.m. for seating.
As a courtesy to all guests in attendance, we ask that seats not be held for others. If you require accessible seating or parking accommodations, please notify Emily Perrelle in the Office of Student Affairs before May 15.
Photography
Since the Sports and Recreation Center is not well suited for long range photography, Rose-Hulman has hired a professional photographer to take individual pictures on stage as graduates receive their diploma from the President. These will be available a few weeks later at: https://www.gradimages.com/ .
Do I need tickets for commencement
Tickets are not required. Seating is first-come, first-served.
