University Bookstore to hold annual Grad Fair
University students graduating in June can have their questions answered and begin celebrating a little early this week.
Today through Saturday is the Grad Fair at the University Bookstore. Students and faculty can order caps, gowns, announcements and regalia for commencement — and have all of their questions about graduation answered, bookstore marketing team member Allen Mather said.
Representatives from U Lane O Credit Union and the University Alumni Association will be at the fair, and prizes and giveaways will be offered throughout the week, Mather said.
From 2 to 4 p.m. Friday in 220 Gerlinger, the Alumni Association and the Student Alumni Association will hold a Zero-Year Reunion for graduating seniors.
The event is an annual “send-off for seniors that the Alumni Association sponsors just as a farewell; a congratulations on their achievements,” Alumni Association spokesman Paul Stieber said.
A local musical group, the U-Gene Band, will play at the reunion, and there will be free food, beverages and a gift for seniors.
To attend, seniors need to bring the invitations they should have received in the mail and their
student ID.
For information about commencement regalia, call Nicole Shiraga at the University Bookstore at 346-4331.
