Outdoor Photo Hotspots on Campus

Graduates will be directed outside immediately following their ceremony at Baxter Arena. Going to one of the destinations below will help clear the area for the next ceremony and reduce congestion near the arena. There will be no displays in these areas, but the buildings and landscaping make the locations hotspots for mini photo shoots. Grads-to-be and their loved ones can also stop by any of these locations ahead of commencement.
