The biggest annual celebration on the CC campus \u2014 Commencement \u2014 is coming up Sunday, May 22, 8:30 a.m., in Ed Robson Arena. That\u2019s just 75 days away!<\/span>
<\/h1>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Additional end-of-year and Commencement festivities include:<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Honors Convocation<\/strong>, Tuesday, May 10, at 11 a.m. This is CC\u2019s opportunity to honor outstanding students and faculty. The annual program includes departmental awards, all-college awards, and awards from the CC Student Government Association. All are welcome to attend. The ceremony serves as the First Mondays presentation for Block 8 (despite the fact that it\u2019s on Tuesday).<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Baccalaureate<\/strong>, Saturday, May 21, 3-4 p.m., is open only to students and their two guests, but a live, online stream of the ceremony will be available. Baccalaureate provides a quiet, intimate opportunity to reflect on the rite of passage of graduation, hear from a faculty member, and enjoy students\u2019 talents.<\/span><\/div>\n
