The COVID-19 pandemic halted traditional graduation ceremonies last year, but this spring, area colleges are holding on-campus commencements â with precautions in place.
California University of Pennsylvania will host three in-person commencement ceremonies for graduates over two days, May 7-8, at Cal Uâs 6,000-seat Convocation Center.
Interim university President Robert Thorn will confer more than 1,000 degrees at the ceremonies, although not all graduates will attend.
The staggered graduation ceremonies were organized by the college to meet state-mandated occupancy limits. Students from the School of Graduate Studies and Research will attend at 7 p.m. May 7; students from the College of Education and Liberal Arts at 10 a.m. May 8; and students from the Eberly College of Science and Technology at 2 p.m. May 8.
