Participation

Group of Faculty WalkingAll faculty from all schools and colleges, full-time, part-time, emeriti, tenured, adjunct, etc. are invited and encouraged to particpate in both the Honors Convocation and Commencement Ceremonies.

These ceremonies celebrate the culmination of achievement for students whose education and lives you have helped shape during their time here at UNH. Your attendance sends a strong message to the students that you support them and are proud of their accomplishments. They and their families will genuinely appreciate your participation.

Regalia

Formal academic regalia, as determined by your highest degree and the institution at which it was earned, is required for both ceremonies.

If you do not own regalia, it may be rented or purchased through the independent vendor, University Cap and Gown by calling 978-686-4566.

The vendor will know what regalia is appropriate to your degree and institution. Faculty are responsible for all charges associated with the rental, purchase and shipping of regalia.

Parking

Parking for faculty for both ceremonies is available in Lot D at the Elliot Alumni Center.
