Three ceremonies will mark UALR’s spring commencement events on Saturday, May 21.

Graduates of the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences; the College of Education; and the College of Professional Studies will receive their degrees at a 9:30 a.m. ceremony at the Jack Stephens Center.

The graduation and hooding ceremony for graduates of the William H. Bowen School of Law will begin at 12:30 p.m. at the Wally Allen Ballroom at the Statehouse Convention Center. Minnijean Brown Trickey, a member of the Little Rock Nine who helped integrate Central High School in 1957, will address the graduates.

Graduates of the Donaghey College of Engineering and Information Technology (EIT), the College of Science and Mathematics, and the College of Business will receive their degrees at 3 p.m. at the Jack Stephens Center.

Information for graduates and visitors is available on the commencement website.

This year’s commencement will encourage even more social media participation than ever before. The main campus ceremonies will be streamed live over the internet. Both the live audience and home audience can follow and contribute to the Twitter stream as we live-tweet using the hashtag “UALRgrad.” A Facebook guestbook will also be available to congratulate graduates on their accomplishments.
