Call for commencement volunteers

Submitted by Commencement Committee

Commencement for fall 2022 is just around the corner.

K-State will celebrate the accomplishments of the graduates and you can be part of that celebration. With a packed weekend of ceremonies, the commencement planning team is looking for volunteers to assist at each ceremony. Ceremonies will be at Bramlage Coliseum. A schedule of the ceremonies can be found on the commencement website.

Volunteers are needed Dec. 9-10 to assist with the graduate assistance table, direct graduates, scan Grad-Passes and restock commencement programs/diploma covers. If you are willing and able to assist, please complete the commencement volunteer sign-up.

Volunteers working the graduate assistance table/concourse should wear a business-appropriate K-State or purple shirt and comfortable shoes. Volunteers for the ceremony floor should wear black clothes to blend in and comfortable shoes. Those who work two shifts on Saturday will be provided lunch.

If you are an hourly employee, or non-exempt, and want to volunteer at the spring commencement ceremonies, please work with your supervisor to restructure your work hours to stay within your 40-hour workweek as necessary.

For questions regarding the ceremony or volunteering please reach out to the Commencement Committee at commencement@k-state.edu. Thank you in advance to all those able to assist at the fall 2022 commencement ceremonies.
