Health & Safety In following with CDPH guidelines, masks will be required
by guests and graduates. In addition, all guests and graduates will be
required to complete a Graduation Health Screener (similar to the daily
health screener) on each ceremony day. The link to the survey will be made
available on the ceremony day. Immediately following each ceremony, all
guests must exit the bleachers, Jacket Stadium, and campus through the
Martin Luther King Jr. Gate to allow sufficient transition between
ceremonies. We will sanitize seating and other spaces while we prepare to
check-in participants for the next ceremony.

Seating Seating will be assigned. Guests will be required to remain in the
same pod of seats for the duration of each ceremony. There are no reserved
seats, but the first three rows of the bleachers should be saved for ADA
seating. The gate to the Jacket Stadium will open up 45-60 minutes prior to
each ceremony.
