Fun Facts - Commencement 2013:

  • This is Lorain County Community College’s 49th Commencement
  • We are anticipating 600+ students will march, which means we will have an overall attendance of 3,500.  Last year more than 550 students crossed the stage  
  • DVD Sales of the Ceremony will be available for purchase at the reception following the ceremony (DVDs will be mailed that following week), or in the bookstore after May 18.
  • Professional photos will be taken of every student receiving their diploma.   The photographer will contact students in the week following the ceremony with information on how you can purchase your photos.  Proofs will be available for viewing online through a secure site.
