Generally, LIS students attend the School of Education Ceremony in the spring, although some people attend the big Friday ceremony as well. Our reception, however, will be held following the SOE Ceremony on Saturday, 17 May in the Faculty Center on campus.

IF YOU ARE GRADUATING THIS SPRING, PLEASE RSVP TO CINDY IN THE LIS DEPARTMENT (cpfelts@uncg.edu). Please let her know if you will be participating in the SOE Ceremony, if you will be attending the reception, and how many guests you expect. ALSO, please include a NON-UNCG email address, so we can update our alumni records. Please RSVP to Cindy by Tuesday, 1 April.
