Graduation ceremonies
The Indianapolis Star (Indianapolis, IN)
May 8, 2005
More than 55,000 students from Indiana's universities and colleges
earned their diplomas this year.
The state's 31 private colleges graduated about 18,000 students. The
rest got their degrees on the campuses of the seven public
universities.
On Saturday, thousands of students graduated during commencements at
Indiana University at Bloomington, Ball State, Indiana State, the
University of Indianapolis and Anderson University. In the next few
weeks, many more will do so before tackling their first jobs, trying
new careers or heading to graduate schools.
Upcoming commencements include:
- Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis: Today, RCA Dome;
speakers, President Adam W. Herbert and Chancellor Charles R. Bantz.
- University of Southern Indiana: Today, Roberts Stadium, Evansville;
speaker, Charles C. Huppert, Evansville businessman and World War II
pilot and prisoner of war. The efforts of Huppert and other prisoners
to tunnel out of Stalag Luft III inspired the 1963 movie, "The Great
Escape."
- Purdue University, West Lafayette: May 14-15, Elliott Hall of Music;
speakers, President Martin C. Jischke and Tamara Morse, president of
the Purdue Alumni Association.
