Commencement Kick- Off quickly approaching

by Cheryl Tranchitella staff writer

What used to be last year's Senior Send-Off is this year's Commencement Kick-Off. For the "kick-off," every offi~ on campus will be in the Dixon Center for the graduating seniors to check on things before graduation.

Administrative Coordinator for Student Development Nicole Nordberg is running the event.

"It is a one-stop shop to get everything done before commencement without running all over campus to meet all ends," Nordberg said. This event started last year when Vice President for Student Development Dr. Laura Valente proposed the idea. It was so well done and such a success that she decided to keep the event going. Valente came up with the idea from Josten, the ring company, which sponsors what is called the "Graduation Salute."

"We just changed the name and did our own thing," Nordberg said.

The tables that will be represented there are the Business Office, the Financial Office, Student Government Association, Public Safety, Campus
