Some held them virtually.
A year later, colleges and universities have scheduled commencement ceremonies in person, virtually, drive in and drive through. In some cases, in-person events will be held over multiple days or multiple times in one day to reduce the number of people attending.
Some schools are either including the class of 2020 or holding separate events for them.
Some of the schools have plans to move outdoor ceremonies indoor if it rains. That could limit the number of people who may attend.

On March 12, LNP | LancasterOnline published the article âTrump splits GOP votersâ on the front page. The source of some of the material came from the polling of 236 Republicans by Franklin & Marshall College.
One question asked respondents whether they identified as a Trump Republican or a traditional Republican. About 99 respondents (42%) identified as Trump Republicans and about 90 (38%) identified as traditional Republicans. The remaining respondents were classified as âother.â
The next question asked whether these Republicans believed the Trump presidency was good for the country. About 205 of the 236 Republicans (87%) answered yes.
Where is the GOP division? I see a group of Republicans who know who they are and what they believe. And in the end, they vote for and support what they believe is best for our country. I see a glass half full.
