UW Class of 2020 will have virtual graduation ceremony this year
SEATTLE-- University of Washington graduates will not get their traditional graduation ceremony this June, due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, university officials announced Wednesday.
Instead, the graduation will go virtual and for the first time, combine all three UW campuses into one graduation ceremony.
The live, worldwide and interactive web cast will take place on the afternoon of June 13.
"The procession will continue with the entry of the deans, President Ana Mari Cauce, the Board of Regents, and Provost Mark Richards," officials wrote on the UW graduation web page. "From there the ceremony will unfold, culminating in the conferring of degrees and the turning of tassels, marking your entrance into the ranks of esteemed Husky alumni."
