[Wsssc] Inquiry about WHEN you do commencement

[Rimando-chareunsap, Rosannette]

HI WSSSC-ers!

Thanks to those who have shared their info with me, I heard from 12 of our colleagues. If anyone else wanted to weigh in and let me know your responses to the questions below, I would greatly appreciate it! I am doing some analysis for our district chancellor's cabinet and presenting on Monday.

Thanks once again, and I'll be happy to share the collected results if anyone else is interested.

Rosie

Subject: [Wsssc] Inquiry about WHEN you do commencement

Hi folks-

We are looking at some timing issues with a venue in planning our commencement for 2018. I have a couple of quick-reply questions for you:


-          When do you typically hold your commencement? Before finals week? Before the end of finals week? After?



-          If you hold your commencement after finals week, did you see a drop in participation from students or faculty? What do you do to encourage participation from students or faculty?

I would love a reply by Friday, November 17th. Thank you for your time in replying to this!

Rosie
