It was confirmed by university spokesperson Lynn Griffith that Marquette’s undergraduate commencement will be held at the Fiserv Forum Saturday, May 11.
This announcement comes after the Milwaukee Bucks lost Game 6 of the first round playoff series against the Indiana Pacers as they were able to confirm with the university that the Fiserv would be available on May 11. Undergraduate commencement will be at 1 p.m. and the graduate ceremony will be at 5 p.m.
Baccalaureate mass will be held Saturday, May 11 as well at 9 a.m. at the Al McGuire Center.
“The university thanks graduating students and their families for their patience and understanding as we awaited the Milwaukee Bucks’ playoff schedule — we know how frustrating the uncertainty was throughout this process. We look forward to celebrating the many accomplishments of the Class of 2024 with all the pomp and circumstance they deserve,” Griffith said in a statement.
