Commencement 2008 (May 30-31, 2008)

We look forward to welcoming family and friends of the Bennington Class of 2008 to campus May 30–31, 2008. Come enjoy a weekend of memorable activities celebrating the achievements of this year’s graduates! In addition to the conferring of degrees, Commencement Weekend will include a senior dance performance, a graduation concert, and a celebration dinner featuring the commencement addresses.

For more information and to register to attend, please follow the links below. The registration deadline is May 16, 2008. Please note that no registration is required if you plan to attend ONLY the graduation ceremony on Saturday, May 31. Each graduating student may invite as many guests as he/she wishes to graduation; there is no maximum number of attendees. Although tickets are required for Commencement Dinner on Friday (see “Registration” below), no tickets are required for other Commencement Weekend activities. Seats at the Commencement Ceremony on Saturday morning are first-come, first-served. If you have a large group, we recommend arriving early in order to get seats together.
