There will be a Baccalaureate Prayer Service with Conferring of Academic Hoods on Thursday, May 11, 2023, at 1:30 p.m. in the Sister Diana Stano Athletic Center on Ursuline’s campus. The ceremony is rooted in spirituality, one of our core values, and guided by our Ursuline mission and heritage. We will reflect on our Ursuline experiences and ask God’s blessings on our graduates and guests. Graduates receiving bachelor's or master’s degrees wear academic regalia and academic hoods are conferred. The service is optional for graduating students and open to people of all faiths and no faith. We expect the service will last approximately 45 minutes.
