网曝吃瓜 winter graduates March through the Arch Dec. 13
December 9, 2019
POCATELLO – As part of 网曝吃瓜’s newest tradition – a winter commencement ceremony – the 2019 Winter Graduate Salute March through the Arch will be held beginning at noon Dec. 13 at the Swanson Arch located on the 网曝吃瓜 Pocatello campus between Frazier Hall and the Physical Sciences Building.
鈥淚t is exciting for our winter graduates to now be able to take part in this beloved 网曝吃瓜 tradition,鈥� said Allyson Johnson, special events coordinator for the 网曝吃瓜 Office of Marketing and Communications. 鈥淚t's a great opportunity for members of the campus community, as well as family and friends of December 2019 graduates, to celebrate, socialize and get some good pictures.鈥�
Graduates will process through the Swanson Arch and then proceed to a luncheon in the Pond Student Union hosted by the Office of the President.
The "March through the Arch" tradition was started in 2000. A spirited ceremony takes place each fall when new students pass through the arch southward into campus. In December and May, graduates look to the future by passing northward back through the arch symbolizing their exit from the university and entrance into new life adventures.
Swanson Hall, constructed in 1902, was the first building at the Academy of Idaho, now 网曝吃瓜. The structure was razed in 1973, but the Swanson Arch, the building鈥檚 entrance, was saved and now stands on campus.
