GRADUATION

Graduation & Commencement

Students may apply to graduate for Spring, Summer, or Fall semester. There are Commencement Ceremonies for Spring and Fall graduations only. Summer graduates are invited to the Fall Ceremony.

Fall Commencement is held in the Convention Center. There will be Convention Center Staff to direct students to their College’s check-in point.

Spring Commencement is held on the athletic fields, located near the Tivoli. Students check in with their College in the Event Center/PE Building. Parking is free on campus! Be certain to bring some water and wear plenty of sunscreen as this event is held outside.

Information about Commencement activities (dates, special passes, cap & gowns, and graduation announcements) can be found at: http://www.cudenver.edu/Academics/Commencement

Graduation Applications

Students submit a graduation application, which are available in CAM’s Office of Advising & Student Services (ARTS 177). We will accept graduation applications between the first day of registration for that semester and the “add” deadline (the 12 day of the semester in Fall/Spring semesters). Late applications will NOT be accepted. Please consult the Academic Calendar for specific dates (www.cudenver.edu/registrar).

CAM Graduation Events

Students will receive information in the mail from the College about Commencement receptions with additional details (location, dates, times, etc.). Below is a little overview, though, of what the College plans:

Fall Commencement: The College hosts a post-commencement reception, with light refreshments, where we congratulate our graduates, meet family and friends, and honor our Outstanding Seniors.

Spring Commencement: The College hosts a pre-commencement event Night at the CAMmy’s in which senior students from all disciplines showcase their artistic work. This night of celebration is usually held the week before commencement and includes the BFA Thesis Show, Ensembles, Theatre Senior Projects, and Film Showings,…not to mention food and refreshments.

CAM RECORDS REVIEWED in NEW YORK TIMES The New York Times reviewed student-run record labels across the country for a piece, "So You Want to Be a Rock n' Roll Executive?" by Wm Ferguson for it's Sunday, April 23, 2006 issue.  In it, CAM Records' success with it's latest release "Colorado Cuts" was touted along with the album itself.

Barton Bishoff, 1994 graduate in Music Technology Bart Bishoff, a 1994 graduate of the Music Technology program, is producing and directing a technology show for NBC called “Tech Now” based in San Francisco since 2000.  The show is currently producing a documentary about Jack Mullin who brought the magnetphone from Germany and gave it to Ampex – starting the recording revolution.  Bishoff learned of this music recording pioneer in one of Roy Pritt’s (semi-retiring this May after 36 years of service to the University – Professor of Music) music technology courses and told his boss the story — hence the documentary about his life.

JUDITH COE RECEIVES FULBRIGHT AWARD Judy Coe received a Fulbright Scholar’s Award for research she will conduct in Ireland beginning this September for the academic year. Coe will be hosted by the University of Limerick in the Irish World Music Centre (IWMC), and will travel around the country doing interviews with students and faculty, observing regional pedagogies and singing styles, and listening to and making music with Irish musicians. Her project will explore alternative expressions in Irish music and song, and will examine sean-nós (Irish traditional “old-style”) singing and pedagogy, and how those traditions inform and transform other musical genres, including the creative work of emerging pop musicians and singer/songwriters, electronic and experimental musicians, and classical/cross-over genres.  

Gwen Laine Gwen Laine, an experimental photographer and 2000 Visual Arts graduate (BFA Photography), has a solo exhibition of her photography at Sandy Carson Gallery through May 27.  Laine’s exhibit, PARALLEL LINES, is shared with another artist Lorelei Schott (Schott is an abstract painter). Laine will be included in the June 2006 issue of Black & White magazine, where she’s been chosen as one of the fifteen hottest young photographers in the country.
