Dear Faculty and Staff,
Just a reminder, please RSVP for the 2024 Convocation ceremony, which will be held Tuesday, August 27 at the Chesapeake Employers Insurance Arena. We look forward to welcoming our incoming students and introducing them to UMBC’s traditions. We hope you will march in the procession, where some of our new students will see academic regalia for the first time.
Please join us for a Welcome Reception for Provost Manfred H. M. van Dulmen, hosted by President Sheares Ashby at 2:30 p.m. Those planning to march in the procession should arrive no later than 3 p.m. The ceremony will begin at 3:30 p.m.
Faculty and staff who wish to march in the procession (or simply attend Convocation) should register here and order their regalia by this Friday, August 2 to avoid additional shipping fees. Those who wish to volunteer as event staff can register here.
We hope you're able to join us for this community tradition!
The UMBC Events Team
