Convocation is a special celebration, with tradition and symbolism that date back centuries in the history of higher education. "Convocation" means a gathering and in academics, College and cultural convocations are a time for smaller groups to gather and celebrate educational achievements.
The School of Sustainability Convocation is an exclusive ceremony that individually recognizes undergraduate and graduate candidates from the School of Sustainability. Graduates' names are read as they cross the stage to receive personal congratulations from the School of Sustainability administration, faculty, staff and family.
All Global Institute of Sustainability/School of Sustainability faculty and staff are welcome to attend the School of Sustainability Convocation ceremony. Your show of support to the graduates is important. Tickets are required for the event so please RSVP to sosgraduation@asu.edu or pick them up at the School of Sustainability Academic Advising Office, Wrigley Hall, Arizona State University at the Tempe campus. Extra tickets will be available the day of Convocation at the Gammage Auditorium box office.
