Dear Families and Friends of Unity College Graduating Seniors,

Congratulations! You and your senior have made it to commencement and now it is time to celebrate!

Below is information about Commencement weekend. Please feel free to contact me with any questions at kgrenier@unity.edu.

Senior Commencement Banquet - Friday, May 9, 2008 6:00pm
Every year, Unity College hosts a banquet to honor and celebrate our graduates. Departmental awards are presented during this time. Graduates and their families are encouraged to attend.

Each graduate receives three free reservations, including their own. Additional reservations, after the first three, cost $25.00 per person and children under ten cost $12.00. Due to limited space, please make your banquet reservations by April 4, 2008. Walk-ins are only accepted if room is available. There is room for up to 500 people, but there is no assigned seating. Large groups should plan on arriving early in order to find seating together.

Upon receipt of your reservation, we will send written confirmation and your name will be placed on our guest list. Please include the names of all people in the reservation, including the name of the graduate. Make checks payable to Unity College and mail to Kate Grenier, College Advancement, Unity College, 90 Quaker Hill Road, Unity, Maine 04988. 

Please click here if you need the banquet reservation form. Note: forms were sent in the mail on February 26 and may take several days to arrive.
