Faculty, Staff, & Board of Trustees

On Friday, May 12, 2023 we will hold the 132nd Saint Joseph Seminary College Graduation Ceremony! Our graduates have worked so hard and I know they are truly excited about this very important milestone in their lives.

Please plan to report to the Abbott Paul Conference Room in Borromeo Hall at 4:15pm to dress for the ceremony and become familiar with the information below before your arrival.

Caps and Gowns

You will obtain your regalia from the Academic Office Assistant near the laundry hallway, then take it to the Abbott Paul Conference Room to get dressed. If you requested rental regalia, we will have it steamed and ready for you. If you are bringing your own regalia, please be sure it is steamed. Graduates will be dressing in B1. After the ceremony, please proceed back to Borromeo Hall to return your regalia before joining the reception.

Ceremony

Line up for the ceremony will begin at 4:45pm outside the entrance to Borromeo Hall. Please become familiar with the line up order and your seating assignment in the choir stalls prior to the ceremony. When you arrive in the church, your name will be on your seat, along with a commencement program. The music for the ceremony is included in the back of the program so that you can participate during mass if you so choose.

Reception

After the ceremony, please proceed back to the Abbott Paul Conference Room to return your regalia. Once returned, we invite you to join the reception as we celebrate with our graduates and their families.
