Graduating seniors at SUNY ESF will officially get to walk the stage next month.

The college president has announced that two commencement ceremonies will be held on May 15 at St. Joseph's Health Amphitheater at Lakeview.

This will be the first event at the venue since before the pandemic.

Each graduate will be able to invite two guests, but a negative COVID-19 test will be required within 72 hours of the event, or a completed vaccine series by no later than may first.

Friends and loved ones unable to attend can watch the ceremonies on ESFTV.
