Marshal Information
Volunteer as a MarshalÂ
We appreciate everyone who joins us to celebrate our graduating Buffs. A successful commencement depends on volunteer marshals like you. The 2024 Commencement ceremony will take place Thursday, May 9. The traditional procession from Norlin Quadrangle will begin at 8 a.m., and the commencement ceremony takes place in Folsom Field starting at 8:30 a.m.Â
Marshal Regalia
Marshals wear regalia and a marshal stole to identify them as volunteers who can assist students and guests during the commencement ceremony. Please by March 24, 2024. Marshals will pick up regalia at the Marshal's Luncheon.Â
Regalia Returns
After the ceremony, please return your regalia to Balch Fieldhouse. The Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBook Store will not accept rental returns. If you do not return rental apparel (gown, hood and cap) after you use it, you might have to pay for the full replacement value.
