In order to facilitate participation candidates who qualify should take note of the following information:

1. Students who will receive an honors recognition certificate should arrive at the Performing Arts Center (PAC) not later than 5:45 pm to check-in, and receive the identifying card they need to have in order to walk on stage. No one will be seated after the program begins.
2. The Honors Recognition Ceremony is an academic exercise and designed to be a dignified event.  The Platform Members will wear academic regalia and Honors Students walking on stage are expected to wear appropriate attire (business-formal).
3. Honors recipients will be seated in the front center section of the PAC.  Guests will be seated by event staff.
4. A reception for Honors Students, their guests (maximum two), and faculty and staff participating in the event will be held immediately after the event in the lobby area of the PAC.
5. The awards listed in this program are based on official transcript information from the Office of the Registrar as of the conclusion of the Fall 2012 semester.  Due to printing schedules and deadlines, candidates eligible to graduate with honors resulting from Spring 2013 grades may not be listed in this program and will not receive award certificates.  Honors distinctions will be noted on final official transcripts and degrees, however.
6. All Honors Students expecting to participate in the exercise are required to register and RSVP for the event.  If you cannot attend the event, it would be helpful if you could let us know as well.
