Any candidate who does not wish to attend commencement is asked to
write to the campus registrar requesting that the degree be conferred
in absentia at the annual commencement exercises. Since arrangements
for commencement are complex and well advanced by April 1, such
requests ideally should be placed before that date, although they will
be accepted any time before commencement. Candidates whose attendance
is prevented by some last-minute emergency are asked to communicate
with the campus registrar or the law school's assistant dean for
student affairs within 24 hours of commencement. In all cases, the
candidate should indicate the address to which the diploma may be sent
when it is mailed during the month of June or July. Diplomas are withheld from all students whose financial or library accounts are not clear. |
