CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - Charleston Southern University is holding its first in-person commencement ceremonies since 2019.
There will be two separate graduation ceremonies this weekend.
The Class of 2020 will graduate on Friday after only having a virtual ceremony last year. The school says about 150 students from the Class of 2020 plan to walk on Friday night.
More than 500 students from the Class of 2021 then plan to walk in-person Saturday.
For the first time ever, both graduations will take place on Buccaneer Field at Whitfield Stadium.
“I think it’s kind of cool being on your college campus to get to graduate,” Senior Elementary Education major Samantha Madak said. “But, definitely the coliseum would allow more people to come. Like I know I’ve been able to go to graduations in past years and see friend’s graduate. So, I mean I do miss out on that part, but it is cool to be able to graduate on the actual campus where you spent four years.”
