It won’t be long until students put on their cap and gown and march in line during the University of Mississippi’s graduation ceremony.
Graduation will be held Saturday, May 11. The morning commencement ceremony will be at 9 a.m. in the Grove. The School of Journalism and New Media graduation will be in the C.M. “Tad” Smith Coliseum at 3 p.m.
Tewolde GebreMariam, the group chief executive officer of Ethiopian Airlines, will be the graduation speaker.
Students had the opportunity to participate in a graduation expo March 19-21 that answered many questions about the graduation process. Now they can refer to the commencement website for more information.
