Dear Colleagues,

The Leadership Events team is beginning to plan the various events that will take place during the 2024 Commencement Weekend. As you know, Commencement is an “all hands on deck” weekend for our team, and yet, even with all of us involved we still need the help of our Development colleagues to steward our benefactors and other special guests.

We are in need of assistance with the following events: 

• May 18:  Saturday Mass in Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center. We need volunteers from approximately 3:15 p.m. until 6:30 p.m.
• May 18:  Saturday President’s Reception in Club Naimoli at the Joyce Center.  We need volunteers to stay post Mass.  Shift would begin immediately after Mass and ending at approximately 8:00 p.m.
• May 19:  Sunday Commencement Ceremony. We need volunteers from approximately 7:00 a.m. until 10:00 a.m. to assist with seating in Development’s Preferred Seats and with the movement of the Platform Party. (Times may vary due to weather)

Please click here to provide us with your availability.

We will provide specific details in the weeks closer to Commencement. Please know if you are a non-exempt staff volunteering, you will need to have your supervisor’s approval. Please let us know by Friday, May 10th. 

Thank you for your selfless dedication to Our Lady.

In Notre Dame,
