Commencement 2015 – Volunteers Needed


MCC Commencement 2015 is scheduled for Saturday, May 30 at 9:30 a.m. at the Blue Cross Arena.  We are happy to report that the changes made to last year’s ceremony were very successful. Therefore, we will continue with a double-line ceremony and two faculty readers announcing names on each side of the stage. 

Graduates will be required to pick up their caps and gowns ahead of time from the bookstores.  Caps and gowns will not be available at the arena on the day of the ceremony. 

As in past years, Faculty Marshals are needed to help align students properly in the marshaling and seating areas.  If you have not already submitted your name to volunteer, please consider volunteering to make this a great day for all our graduates and their families.

Academic Services will be providing a faculty breakfast for faculty participating in the Processional and they are asked to report to the Faculty Marshaling Area – Riverside Lounge (follow signs) at the Blue Cross Arena by 8:00 a.m. for breakfast, robing and alignment in Processional lines. 

Parking is available in the Civic Center Parking Garage, South Avenue Garage, and open lots in the area. 

Please respond by e-mailing or calling Dawn Quatro at: <
mailto:dquatro@monroecc.edu>, Ext. 2122 if you are interested in marshaling students and indicate the program you would like to assist.  Marshals are to report to Denise Klein in the Candidate’s Marshaling area (located by the student check-in area in the basement of the Blue Cross Arena) no later than 8:00 a.m. Breakfast will be provided for volunteers as well in the basement. If you have not contacted us already, please be sure to let Dawn Quatro know that you are planning to Marshal, EVEN IF YOU HAVE MARSHALED IN THE PAST.   

Thank you for helping make this a very special day for our graduates and their families.
