Gradfest 2010

Gradfest 2010 is a one-stop shop to get students geared up for graduation, and will be held this year in the Student Union in early April. The event is not so much a festival as much as it is a long queue of seniors waiting to buy caps and gowns so they can promptly leave.
The event brings together many services so that undergraduate or advanced-degree candidates can prepare for graduation, or at least help students figure out if they will be a super-senior or not.  
Representatives will be on hand to help students verify diploma information, apply for graduation if they haven't already done so and check on any outstanding issues that may prohibit them from graduating, such as forgetting to take Writing 100. Students may also purchase caps, gowns, hoods and tassels and order personalized graduation announcements, class rings and diploma frames.
Complimentary photos are being offered courtesy of Grad Images/GradTrak. Students are under no obligation to purchase a photography package, and may have a photo taken in regalia or just for their professional portfolio. Career Services, the Alumni Association and Senior Class of 2010 officers will provide information about their services and upcoming events. Students can also learn about Adams Library's extended privileges for alumni.
The Commencement Office will also provide information about Cap and Gown Day and the exercises scheduled in May. Gradfest 2010 is scheduled for Wed., April 7 from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. in the Student Union Ballrooom.
