Many schools, colleges, departments, and programs also hold their own departmental events.
These are generally much smaller, and can give departments a chance to provide more individual recognition of
their graduates in a more personal atmosphere.
Students are encouraged to celebrate their achievements to the fullest, and attend both Commencement and their
departmental events if available.
Check with your student organizations too, some clubs and smaller organizations may also have their own ceremonies,
even if they aren't listed here.
Not all departments list through this site, and some may not list until later in the semester. Some departments may also only hold events one semester each year, usually in the spring. You may consider contacting your department directly, or asking your departmental advisor. There is also an online list of all departments that have used this site, where you might be able to find an appropriate contact email or phone number.
