Dear Member of the University of Wisconsin Law School Class of 2012:
Congratulations on your accomplishment in reaching this great milestone! The year will fly by and soon it will be time for your graduation from this institution.
The 2012 UW Law School graduation events include three important ceremonies.
On Thursday, May 17, 2012, at 7:00 p.m. the UW Law School will host the "Honors and Awards Ceremony." The ceremony will be held at the Union Theater, located in the Memorial Union at 800 Langdon Street in Madison. Light refreshments will be served. All award presenters, recipients, family, and friends are welcome to attend the ceremony.
There are two graduation ceremonies held for UW Law School graduates. The first graduation ceremony is the "University of Wisconsin Graduate and Professional Student Graduation" which will be held on Friday, May 18, 2012 at 5:30 p.m. at the Kohl Center. This ceremony is for the graduates of all graduate and professional UW schools.
The second ceremony is the "UW Law School Hooding Ceremony," which will be held on Friday at 1:00 p.m. in the Exhibit Hall of the Monona Terrace Convention Center. Following the Hooding Ceremony, light refreshments will be served on the Monona Terrace rooftop. This special ceremony and reception honors the Law School graduates, your family, and friends.
This 2012 Graduation Guide contains important information that will help prepare you for graduation. I refer you to the Quick Links to the right of this letter and in particular to the "Schedule of Deadlines and Events."
