To those Attending TESC Commencement, Congratulations.

If, according to a TESC Facebook post, those who don't attend won't get the graduation cap and gown

Hmmmm, that's interesting, I did not attend two ceremonies and received my cap/gown and all extras (programs, honors cords) for both. Whether you've already RSVPd or not, contact the graduation specialist and let her know you will not be attending but would like your cap/gown, program, etc, mailed to your home address. I was told the package is mailed after ceremony. Guessed everything was shipped directly to the site and garments for the students who had not attended were taken back to the college and mailed.


Edit to add:
To save funds, they may now only send to non-attending students who ask since technically the cost is included in the graduation fee. But for those who do not know...why not pocket a few nickels.


I checked last years pic and those are the very same affordable (wrinkled, one use) black and lt gray robes from 3-4yrs ago. If they were the expensive robes worn at unis that are only loaned the day of and returned, I would understand. (shrugs)
