I Need You! (to help with Commencement)
I am looking for approximately 8-10 volunteers who are not graduating in May to help us out with the Commencement Ceremony as “Ushers.” We would ask you to arrive at 12:30 on Sunday, May 18th and stay until approximately 3:30 when the ceremony ends. You would receive general service Pro Bono hours for your assistance.
As an Usher, you would be primarily responsible for assisting the friends and families of our graduates with finding their way from the entrances of EJ Thomas Hall to the auditorium doors. You will also assist Judges and Special Guests with finding their way to Row F which is reserved for Special Guest Seating.
If you are available, please contact me, Anthony Colucci, by email to colucci@uakron.edu with your name and cell-phone number. I will follow up with more detailed information.
Thank you, and good luck on your final exams!
Room Availability During Exam Week
In an effort to provide more study space for students, we are making available to you the times that each of our classrooms is available for your use. There will be no official process by which you will be able to reserve these rooms, and availability is subject to change without notice. Additionally, if you choose to study in one of these rooms, please be out by the time it is marked as unavailable (blacked out). If needed, the Dean’s Office may need to ask you to leave a classroom at any time.
Please note: This is informational only. We will not reserve classrooms for study use. If you find one that is available and empty, you are welcome to use it. You must, however, vacate the room in plenty of time before it is marked as unavailable.
The sheet for each room will also be posted at the door of the classroom, and every effort will be made to update the sheets posted at the door. The copy that is posted here will not be updated, so please defer to the sheets posted at each door. Please click on the link below to view the room availability sheets.
Graduates: Is Your Name Accurate?
Attention Graduates! DEADLINE: This Friday, April 25, 2014
On Monday, April 14, you should have received an email from Anthony Colucci regarding the way your name is currently in the system. This is how it will appear in the commencement program, as well as on your diploma, and on the class composite photo (whether you were photographed or not) according to your primary name in MyAkron.
Name changes (including the change from a middle initial to a full middle name) require a legal document (marriage license, divorce decree, court order, driver’s license, or social security card) indicating the name change, and must be requested in person at the Office of the University Registrar in Simmons Hall 120.
This is a reminder to make these changes no later than this Friday.
Not Too Late to Purchase a Class Composite Photo
It is never too late to purchase an 11″ x 14″ copy of your class composite photo to display in your home or office. Just stop by the Dean’s Office Reception Desk with a check made payable to The University of Akron School of Law in the amount of $30.00. Class composites remain available, even beyond graduation.
