Things To Know Before You Go

Attire
It’s the final day of summer dress! Attire is your choice, but, remember, Fridays are for going purple!

There will be ample options for seating. The arena will be open for seating during programming and, following, for eating and entertainment. Limited table seating is also available for dining in the concourse.

Dining
Lunch will be available after the event program at 12 food service stations in the concourse. To ease the flow, event greeters will guide and dismiss each section to grab food. Faculty and staff are invited to eat either in the arena during entertainment or in limited seating on the concourse. For gluten free or vegetarian lunches, ask the Sodexo employee at any food station.

Accessibility
A Spanish language interpretation will be available. A sign language interpreter will be on-site. Accessible seating will be available at both luncheon tables on the concourse and in the arena for programming. Additionally, shuttles are running and available (see above). Need help?

Entertainment
The opening program will include messages from Chancellor Victor J. Boschini, Jr. and President Daniel W. Pullin as well as recognition for prestigious university awards and an overall welcome and opening to fall 2023. Head back into the arena to enjoy post-program entertainment while you dine!
