To assist in the planning and coordination of the ceremonies, all faculty and staff will be asked to complete a simple online registration form that you will receive via email in mid-March.

The form will collect info on which ceremony/ceremonies you are attending, whether you will be present for the light lunch between the ceremonies, if you need a parking pass or will be using the university shuttle, and if you'd like to volunteer to help check in and line up students backstage before each ceremony.

Coffee service will be available before the first ceremony and a light lunch will be served between the two for those who plan to stay for both ceremonies. The commencement registration form, which will be sent in mid-March, will ask whether you plan to stay for both ceremonies so that we can have an accurate count for lunch.

All teaching faculty and staff are welcome and encouraged to join the procession for either or both ceremonies, along with additional staff colleagues who have traditionally marched. You are more than welcome at both ceremonies; in fact, you are encouraged to participate in both, if you can.

Full-time faculty members who teach undergraduate students are expected to participate, in academic regalia, in the Noon ceremony. Please plan to arrive at the Rosemont Theatre no later than 11:00 a.m.

If you teach graduate students, you are expected to participate, with equal splendor, in the 4:30 ceremony. Please plan to arrive at the Rosemont Theatre no later than 3:30 p.m.

For both ceremonies, processional participants will gather in a curtained off area on the back right side of the lobby (northwest corner).

Those participating in the ceremony who need to rent regalia, please contact the Stepan Bookstore. We will publish the regalia ordering deadline on the email that will be sent in mid-March. Orders placed after the deadline will be charged a late fee and your correct school colors may not be available. Regalia must be returned by Monday, May 12. Contact the for more information: dom@bkstr.com or (708) 426.0860.

We have a limited number of gowns and hoods available for use; please contact debkash@dom.edu to review the inventory. Regalia is available on a first come/serve basis.
