Commencement is a time of great satisfaction and promise; a time to recognize the academic achievements of undergraduate and graduate students and celebrate all the possibilities that lie ahead.
The skies above the University of Vermont's 224th Commencement Ceremony on the morning of Sunday, May 18 once again proves two longstanding Vermont maxims:
1.) if it’s a weekend day in Vermont in the spring, expect a little precipitation, and
2.) if you don’t like the weather, just wait a minute.
