Honoring our Mid-year Graduates
Sunday, Dec. 18, 2022
1 p.m. (MT)
Shove Memorial Chapel (Colorado College campus)
Winter Commencement 2022, set for Sunday, Dec. 18, is an opportunity to recognize and celebrate those students who complete their undergraduate studies prior to the May Commencement ceremony. This event may be especially meaningful for those students who are unable to participate in May Commencement activities, however, participation in Winter Commencement does not exclude students from participating in the May Commencement ceremony.
Winter Commencement is open to families and guests of graduates, as well as all current CC faculty, staff, and students. Students who have applied to graduate and their families will receive a formal invitation in early December.
Guests may also RSVP and request special accommodations by contacting Brenda Soto at bsoto@coloradocollege.edu or (719) 389-6265.

Heads-up on Housing for Class of 2024
Colorado College has a very limited number of housing spaces on campus for seniors each year. In order to assist all rising seniors with the housing selection process, and to allow time for students to secure off-campus housing in the area, detailed information will be emailed to students next week, with senior housing selection completed by the end of Block 4.
Please encourage your rising senior to complete the Senior Housing Interest for 2023-24 survey included in that email! If students have additional questions following the Housing email/survey, they can contact housing@coloradocollege.edu or visit the Housing website for the most up-to-date information.
