Make Plans for Commencement Commencement is approaching quickly and students who plan to graduate must file a Petition for Graduation with the registrar’s office. The 2005 Commencement will be May 14 at Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne. Although the event was held on the Fort Wayne campus for many years, the university’s growth created a need for a larger venue. The 2004 ceremony was the first Indiana Tech commencement to take place at the Coliseum. Petitions for Graduation may be filed throughout the year, however students who would like to participate in the Commencement ceremony must file the petition prior to March 1. Students who file after March 1 will be charged a late fee, and those filing after May 1 will not be allowed to participate in the ceremony. If students have not completed all of the requirements for their degree program, they must be registered for all remaining course requirements and be scheduled to complete all course work by Oct. 1 to participate in commencement. Petitions can be filed online at www.IndianaTech.edu by following the link to the registrar’s office under Current Students.
Great Graduation Gifts If you or someone you know is graduating this spring, consider a gift that will leave its mark on the university for future generations. You can be a part of the Andorfer Commons theater by sponsoring a seat in the state-of-the-art auditorium. The 210-seat theater is designed for students and other visitors to enjoy movies, lectures, and performances. Congratulate a graduate or celebrate your own accomplishments, by sponsoring one of the seats. For a $500 donation to the university, a brass plaque will be engraved
and placed on a chair in the theater. Another option to consider is ordering an engraved brick for the patio outside of the Abbott Center. The bricks will be laser-engraved to ensure that your message lasts for many years to come. The bricks are available in two sizes: 4” by 8” for $125 and 8” by 8” for $250. With either size, you will receive a mini replica of the brick. For more information on these opportunities, please contact the Office of Institutional Advancement at (800) 937-2448 ext. 2219.
