Project Graduation

Graduation is around corner! Project Graduation will be from 11:00pm-4:00am following the graduation ceremony on Thursday, May 25th. After spring break, we’ll be sending out more information on project graduation, including waivers. We will need to have forms back by the first of April for planning and budgeting purposes. Forms must be filled out in order to attend and we won’t be able to accept late ones. If a student shows up to project graduation w/o waivers and forms on file, they won’t be allowed to attend. Also, if you have dues you want to pay, you can send Venmo to @lcp2023 (under business tab). If you have questions on dues you can email lcpclassof2023@gmail.com. We would like to have dues paid by March 1.

We will also be communicating a meeting date soon so our committees can get to work!

Thanks!
