Rain Forces Commencement Exercises Indoors
May 15, 2008Rain Forces Commencement Exercises Indoors
Dear Rowan Friends and Family:
Although the forecast is calling for rain to continue to come down throughout the morning, our spirits are high on what is our most important day of the year.
Please join President Farish for Commencement indoors. This will be only the third time in more than 35 years that we have moved the exercises inside.
To accommodate all of our students and their guests, we will have to hold ceremonies in different locations, at different times of the day. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope that you understand our dilemma. Above all else, we want today to be happy for our graduates and their loved ones.
The following is a list of locations and the times when the ceremonies will be held.
