WHEN:     Saturday, May 4, 2024

WHERE:  Southerland Mabee Center (SMC), Williams Baptist University

TIME:       10 a.m.  (doors will open at 9:10 a.m. after the graduate group photo is taken)

• Tickets are required for graduation this year.  Only graduating students are allowed to order tickets, and the number of tickets per graduate will be limited.  No one will be allowed in the SMC without a ticket, so if you are a parent, family member, or friend of a graduating student, please speak to the student about obtaining tickets.

• Because of the worshipful nature of our service, we ask family members and guests to hold your applause as your graduate’s name is called.  Instead, when your student’s name is announced, please stand in honor of him or her. 

  Trust us….we will provide an opportunity later in the ceremony for you to exuberantly celebrate your graduate! Please save your enthusiasm for that time. Your cooperation and compliance with this request are greatly appreciated.

• One more thing, we ask that you refrain from noisemakers such as airhorns.  We want each graduate to have the same opportunity to have their name be heard as it is announced, and noisemakers can prevent that from happening.
