Lake Land College is hosting a in-person Commencement for the first time since 2019. The ceremony will take place Friday, May 13th, 2022 at 6 PM at the Field House. Dean of Admission Services Jon Van Dyke says that he knows how much the graduates have been through over the last two years, and believes that since many didn’t have a traditional ceremony at their high school, it will be nice to have one for college. 

College Photographers will be there to capture moments throughout the evening and make the photos available for download at no cost. The ceremony will be streamed live from the college’s homepage at lakelandcollege.edu.  Overflow seating will also show a livestream on a large screen available throughout campus. A recording will be available for viewing on YouTube and local cable channels. 

There will be no cost to order a cap and gown or to participate the process to sign up for Commencement is simple and can be completed online. The deadline to file an Intent to Graduate is Friday, March 18th, 2022.  The deadline to measure for a cap and gown is Friday, March 18th, 2022 and for a cap and gown is Wednesday, March 30th, 2022.
