2018 Commencement Exercises

Wednesday, May 30, 2018

Barclays Center

620 Atlantic Ave

Brooklyn, NY

Doors Open: 8:00 am

 

COMMENCEMENT REMINDERS FOR FACULTY AND STAFF

On Wednesday, May 30, Baruch College will celebrate the 2018 Commencement at the Barclays Center.  Thank you for your participation as we honor our Baruch graduates and their accomplishments on this very auspicious occasion.  The ceremony will begin promptly at 9:30 am.

Location and time of arrival

Faculty who are participating in the ceremony should enter Barclays through the VIP CK Entrance (Calvin Klein) located on Atlantic Avenue.  Baruch student volunteers wearing Commencement badges and directional signage will be placed around the plaza area to help point you in the right direction.  Make sure you bring appropriate ID and travel lightly.  Barclays’s security will be present at the front and will wand and check your belongings before you are allowed to gain entry.  Robing and assembly for the procession will all take place in the Calvin Klein Courtside Club.

If you are attending the ceremony and will be participating in the procession and seated on the stage, please plan to arrive by 8:30 am.  This will give enough time to make your way to the Club, change into your attire and enjoy light refreshments. 

 If you are participating as a Faculty Marshall and assisting us, details regarding Commencement meeting location, time of arrival, robing, and Commencement tasks will be provided in an additional email.

Attire

If you have already ordered your academic regalia, you may pick it up on either May 22 or May 23 between 11:00 am and 7:00 pm in the Newman Vertical Campus Multipurpose Room (NVC 1-107).  Garments not picked up by noon on Friday, May 25 will be available in the faculty robing area located at the Calvin Klein Courtside Club at the Barclays Center on May 30.

At the conclusion of the ceremony, please remember to return your cap and gown to the Robing area.  Please do not return academic regalia back at the College.

 If you have not ordered your attire, we will have spare regalia available to you onsite at the Barclays Center that can be used for the duration of the ceremony.

On behalf of the Commencement Planning Committee, we look forward to your participation at Baruch College’s 2018 Commencement Exercises. For any questions, please contact the Office of Student Life at (646) 312-4550.
