December 2021 Graduation Ceremonies Scheduled<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DegreeWorks completed? Check. Cap? Check. Gown? Check. A&M Texarkana seniors are going down their graduation list for anticipated December 11, 2021 graduation ceremonies. They will be held in the Patterson Student Center at 9:00 am and 11:30 am.  \u201cThe graduation ceremonies will be divided by majors and is a ticketed event,\u201d  says Karen Duke at the Registrar’s office. Two ceremonies with an estimated 118 graduates each ceremony are scheduled to ensure safety and social distancing measures <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Graduation ceremonies are slowly returning to pre-pandemic schedule as the university continues to follow precautionary measures. The graduation commencement committee is made up of faculty and staff, they concur on venue, time, date, and crowd size. Starting at  9:00 am the first graduation ceremony will include Applied Arts & Sciences, Adult and Higher Education, Counseling, Curriculum and Instruction, Elementary Education, Education Administration,Educational Leadership, English, General Studies, History, English, Language, Arts and Reading 7-12, Psychology, School Counseling, and Sociology. The 11:30 am graduation ceremony will finish out with the following majors; Accounting, Business Administration, Biology, Biology Composite Science 7-12, Criminal Justice, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Instructional Technology, Kinesiology, Kinesiology EC-12, Mathematics, Mass Communication, and Political Science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each graduate is allocated up to six tickets for their family and friends and live streaming will be available.  Since TAMUT is following state and federal guidelines for social distancing, seating is limited, thus the six ticket limit per graduate. Upon entering the Patterson Student Center, seating is first come, first serve, there is no reserved seating. The graduation ceremony will be live streamed which is important because of ticket constraints. Nubia Sanchez, prospective graduate said, \u201cI am grateful for the opportunity to be able to get  a higher education and be the first in my family to get  a bachelor’s degree.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Caps and gowns for Bachelors or Masters degree may be purchased at Eagle Central  Bookstore.  The deadline for ordering has passed so it is just what the store has in stock at this point. Eagle Central Bookstore on the main campus can be reached at (903) 334-6620 for more information. There are several other regalia a graduate can buy such as a class ring, photographs or an engraved brick in front of the Eagle Landing to commemorate this momentous occasion.. Cords from different clubs are given out per club and honor sashes are given the day of graduation. Students should check their ACE email for any last minute changes or updates regarding graduation. Students may also contact the graduation office by email at graduation@tamut.edu<\/a> for any more information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 When the Patterson Student Center became used for graduation ceremonies, it allowed an opportunity for family and friends to see places become a reality of where the graduates took classes, studied, learned, forged friendships and committed to finishing an educational goal. Brooklyn Stephens said, I am so thankful to have been given the opportunity to attend such an amazing university close to home. A&M has given me the chance to achieve my dreams while being near the ones I love.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
