Around the Community


Spring 2026 Commencement Volunteer Opportunities 

We are only a few weeks away from the Spring 2026 Commencement and are working to fill over 1200 commencement support roles between May 14-17. These roles bring commencement to life as we celebrate over 5,000 graduates via 22 ceremonies. The University-wide ceremony will be hosted at Canvas Stadium on May 16 at 10:00 a.m. and college-level recognition ceremonies will take place both May 15 and 16. Would you have the opportunity to share via your office staff, students, orgs and channels information about how to volunteer for commencement? If you have availability, we invite you to sign up as a volunteer to support our graduates and their families/friends alongside us.

There’s a wide variety of ways to help support Commencement and it’s easy to sign up via our volunteer sign‑up survey. Volunteer opportunities include:

  • Guest relations and wayfinding
  • Graduate lineup and ceremony support
  • Accessibility assistance
  • Venue and campus operations
  • Setup and teardown
    …and more!

We’ll host trainings once again to help set volunteers up for success as well as provide additional information via email prior to your volunteer times/roles. As always, please let me know what questions you may have – or feel free to reach out to our broader Commencement team at [email protected].  

We are looking forward to welcoming new volunteers!

Spotlight Submission

This week, the front desk recognizes our incredible ASCSU administrative assistant Elisa Randazzo! 

Elisa does so much for ASCSU; from administrative aid, to helping with day to day activities, and leading the front desk through trainings, meetings, and their work. To say she is a critical part of ASCSU would be an understatement, she is one of the main guiding forces here. We are so grateful to Elisa and her hard work and dedication at ASCSU. Thank you! 

Each week, the Front Desk chooses to recognize a different member of ASCSU. If you would like to acknowledge somebody for their projects/accomplishments/hard work/professionalism, share with us here!
