On Saturday morning, 17 June 2006,
the Philosophy Department held a commencement ceremony and reception in honor
of graduating students. This year, the graduation address was delivered by the
City of Eugene Mayor, Kitty Piercy.
The festivities were held outdoors in the Cascade Courtyard (next to the water
fountain) from 10:00 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. Following the graduation ceremony, Philosophy
Department graduating students and their guests were invited to remain for refreshments.
Our ceremony ended in plenty of time for graduates and guests to walk to McArthur
Court for the 12:30 p.m. All-University Commencement (for more information on
the McArthur Court ceremony, see http://studentlife.uoregon.edu/programs/commencement/spring.htm).
UO faculty members, family, friends, and classmates of our graduating students
were invited to join the celebration.
