Graduating Seniors: It's time to order your cap and gown!

If you are a graduating senior and plan to march at the spring graduation ceremony, you must order your cap and gown soon. All orders for caps and gowns, graduation announcements, and accessories must be placed online by March 23, 2009. No orders will be taken directly from students in the Bookstore. Place your orders online here.

Students who do not order their cap and gown by March 23 will not be able to march at graduation. You do not have to order announcements or other accessories unless you want to.

If you are a member of Psi Chi and would like to order an honor cord to wear at graduation, please bring me your money no later than March 23 as well. The cords cost $14 including shipping. If you pay by check, please make the check out to Psi Chi (not to me!). You can see the Psi Chi honor cords here. If you wish to order something else, that's fine, but please add $2 per item to cover shipping costs.

Psychology/Sociology Club

The Psychology/Sociology Club will have its next meeting on Wednesday, January 28, at 11:00 a.m. in Room 3 of the Psychology/Sociology Building. All are welcome to come. We will discuss our plans for this semester, including any field trips, guest speakers, fundraisers, or other activities anyone can suggest. Also, the T-shirts are here! If you ordered a T-shirt last semester, you can pick one up at the meeting, and if you can't make the meeting I have them in my office. If you did not order a shirt last semester, we will probably have some extra ones to sell.
