COMMENCEMENT VENUE DECISION

Barring unforeseen and dramatic changes in the weather forecast for Sunday, May 6, the Commencement venue will be Griswold Stadium.

The 140th Commencement ceremony on Sunday, May 6, begins promptly at 10 a.m., with the academic procession into Griswold Stadium. Family and guests are encouraged to arrive early as most seating is general. The ceremony will take about 2 hours and 15 minutes.

COMMENCEMENT SHUTTLE STOP LOCATION CHANGE

If you and/or your family/guests plan on taking either the Pioneer Express or the additional Commencement shuttles tomorrow, Sunday, May 6, please be advised of this important announcement about a change in the Pioneer Express/Commencement shuttle stop.

Due to a marathon being run downtown Portland, Sunday, May 6, we have rerouted the Pioneer Express and Commencement Shuttles.
Salmon Street is dedicated to the run and will thus not be available for our regular 6th & Salmon shuttle stop.
The location for both the Pioneer Express and Commencement shuttles will be at SW Park Avenue and SW Columbia Street, near Tri-Met bus stop 1108.
Shuttles will run on their posted times but will take the freeways to and from downtown to avoid the run.

Shuttle times remain the same—-

7:30 a.m.—Commencement Shuttle, arriving Templeton at 8:00 a.m.
7:45 a.m.—Commencement Shuttle, arriving Templeton at 8:15 a.m.
8:18 a.m.—Pioneer Express, arriving Templeton at 8:45 a.m.
8:30 a.m.—Commencement Shuttle, arriving Templeton at 9:00 a.m.
8:45 a.m.—Commencement Shuttle, arriving Templeton at 9:15 a.m.
9:13 a.m.—Pioneer Express, arriving Templeton at 9:55 a.m.

Thanks for your understanding and enjoy a brief walk on the South Park Blocks before you catch the shuttles.
