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.

 

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.

ATTN: December 2013 Graduates and May 2014 Candidates:

If you were unable to have your photo taken for the Class Composite Photo, please stop by the front desk to sign up for a time. You can stop by any time between 8am an 6:30pm from now through Monday (not on Saturday or Sunday) to sign up at the front desk.

Photos will be on Tuesday, April 15^th. Time slots are in ten-minute intervals from 9:00am to 11:50am and from 1:10pm through 4:00pm.

Please note that it is not too late to purchase an 11” x 14” copy of the full class composite photo by dropping off a check at the front desk. Checks should be made payable to The University of Akron School of Law in the amount of $30.

Here’s what you need to know:

You may only borrow from an Akron Law graduate from 2009 – 2013 as styles have changed from previous years.

I will also be on hand to answer questions you may have about the ceremony itself, which will take place on May 18^th (details here).

I want to stress that this is the best time to purchase your cap & gown (approx. $135+tax).
