- Know where to go – Grab your line-up info card with your arrival time and check-in location for Commencement.
- Capture the moment – Take your professional graduation photo. (Dress in business attire or rock your cap & gown!)
- Mark your milestone – Order personalized announcements, class rings, diploma frames, and more from Herff Jones.

- Location: Concrete circle outside Hardin Planetarium, intersection of State St. and College Heights Blvd.
- Time: 12:00pm - 2:00pm
Welcome all to an afternoon of solar observing! We meet outside, from 12-2pm, near the Hardin Planetarium at the intersection of State St and College Heights Blvd. We utilize a Sunspotter (to show mass groups the sun's sunspots and to teach geometric astronomy), 9.25" Celestron NexStar with a solar filter (to show fine details such as flares and prominences), and a Coronado PST (the included Hydrogen Alpha filter really helps display the flares). Sometimes, we'll pass out solar viewing glasses. And sometimes, we'll have videos inside the planetarium dome showcasing different wavelengths of the sun.
