Congrats, Eagles, you made it to the end of the spring semester! Whether it was your first one, your last one, or somewhere in between, it’s an accomplishment to be celebrated.
Speaking of celebration, the Class of 2026 begins its commencement ceremonies at 3 p.m. Thursday, May 7, and the final ceremony is at 4 p.m. Monday, May 11. The College of Music ceremonies will take place in the Murchison Performing Arts Center, and all others will be in the UNT Coliseum. Both are enforcing a Clear Bag Policy and metal detectors will be in use. See the full schedule and links to the livestreams.
Please note that traffic on campus will be heavy, especially on the west side. If you’re planning to attend commencement, get some helpful info before you arrive.
