Greetings,

Commencement will be held on Friday, May 2, 2008 at 10:30 am at the TD Banknorth Garden. This day marks an important milestone for family and friends as well as our graduates. You will be receiving a copy of the 2008 Commencement Guide within the next week. It will provide you with ceremony details, commencement related events, directions, hotel information and more. We also included information (i.e., how to purchase T fare) to assist you in traveling to the Garden which is located at North Station, a major MBTA and commuter rail stop (map noting related lines). We highly recommend that graduates and their guests use public transportation or commuter rail service to the TD Banknorth Garden. By using these means of travel, you will avoid rush-hour traffic and the challenge of finding a parking space. Parking is very limited in the immediate area of the Garden and expected capacity is high, due to work day commuters. Your travel plans will impact your arrival time for commencement.

Please carefully review all items and important reminders and be sure to share them with your guests. You may contact the Commencement Office at 617.373.4098 with additional questions or concerns.
