The May 11, 2014 location for the Commencement Ceremony at Western Connecticut State University (WCSU) has been moved...slightly.  This is according to WCSU officials in an announcement made by email to students, staff and faculty today.

Because the Westside Athletic Complex (WAC) will be undergoing refurbishing during that time, the ceremonies will be held on the grass area adjacent to the WAC, next to the student gravel parking lot on the Westside Campus. Commencement ceremonies were held in this exact area for many years before they were moved into the WAC.

Additionally, the grass location is large enough to accommodate everyone who normally attends Commencement, thus no seat tickets will have to be issued.  

This announcement was made today by Dr. Keith Betts, vice president of Student Affairs at WCSU and by Paul Steinmetz, interim associate vice president of Institutional Advancement.
