Weather Plan

In case of light rain, the ceremony will still be held outdoors. Guests can remain outdoors in the Library Plaza, or they may watch the ceremony indoors on a large screen, in air conditioning, at Reamer Auditorium or Olin Hall [Room 115].

In the event of sustained, drenching rain or severe weather, the ceremony will be held in the Memorial Field House and rain tickets will be required. Each student will receive four tickets. They will pick these up and when they pick up their cap & gown. Please note that Memorial Field House is not air-conditioned.

Others may gather in Reamer Auditorium or Olin Hall [Room 115].

The College will also broadcast the ceremony live, and guests can view it in real time, during good or bad weather. The link for the broadcast will appear on the main commencement web page. The unedited video archive will be posted on the College website for unlimited access.
