Commencement is On: Rain or Shine!

Commencement is On: Rain or Shine!

Despite the weather predictions, Commencement will take place on Saturday, Sept. 26, at the CURE Arena in Trenton, N.J.

There is no backup or alternative date, so we encourage you to make your way to the arena and join us for the ceremony. Even if we’re a little soggy, we still can’t wait to celebrate with you. We’ll provide the sunshine with our enthusiasm.

Rain jackets, ponchos and wellies are recommended.

So row your boat up and puddle jump inside to join us for 2026 Commencement!

If you are in a position where you cannot come, please make sure to tune into our livestream coverage of the event.
