The University of Mississippi Staff Council is hosting the inaugural Red and Blue Celebration on Wednesday, May 9, 12 Noon, Auditorium A,  at the Jackson Avenue Center to honor staff members who are completing degrees.  We envision an event where students, family, staff, alumni, and faculty are encouraged to attend, establishing a new tradition at The University of Mississippi. During the ceremony, we will honor graduates and present them with red and blue cords to be worn during commencement activities later in the week.

Any graduating seniors or graduate students who wish to be recognized should complete the online form - http://bit.ly/RedBlueUMStaff - to be included in the recognition ceremony. Graduates must register by  the Wednesday, May 2, 2018 Deadline.

Graduating staff members will also be recognized at the UM Staff Awards Ceremony on May 18, 2018.

This Celebration is co-sponsored by the University of Mississippi Staff Council, the Office of the Provost, and the Division of Outreach and Continuing Education.

Please share this information with any of your co-workers or classmates who have/will be graduating during the 2017-2018 academic year.
