Office of the University Registrar

Today, June 12, is the last day of Spring quarter, 2009. For many hundreds of students, it also marks the successful completion of their studies at our University. To them, the Office of the University Registrar offers its most heartfelt congratulations on their achievement.

The University of Washington’s 134th Commencement Ceremony is upon us! Students at the Tacoma campus take part in their commencement ceremony today; those at the Bothell campus do so on Sunday. On Saturday, the Seattle campus will be thronged by graduates in their gowns, faculty in academic regalia, distinguished speakers, and thousands upon thousands of proud family members come to watch their loved ones mark this important milestone in their academic careers.

It will be a busy weekend for the greater UW community. Again, the OUR extends its congratulations and wishes everyone—graduates, their families, UW faculty and staff, and those who make such events possible—a safe and joyous celebration.
