The Spring 2017 Texas A&M University School of Law Hooding and Commencement ceremony will take place on Friday, May 12, 2017, at 1 p.m. at the
Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary MacGorman Chapel.
Graduates are encouraged to invite family and friends to Commencement. Tickets are not required and seating is based on a first-come, first-served basis.
In addition to receiving their degree, graduates will be "hooded" by student-selected faculty members. In the tradition of academic regalia, the colorful hood is reserved for those individuals who have attained academic degrees beyond the bachelor's degree. Hoods are lined with the official colors of the university conferring the degree, of course Aggie Maroon for Texas A&M, and are faced with velvet in the specific color corresponding to the academic degree -- purple for Juris Doctor.
All are invited to the reception following the graduation ceremony.
Commencement will be preceded by the
Veterans Cord Ceremony at 11:30 a.m. in the Orchestra Room at the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.
