Due to the weather impact on field conditions at the football stadium, the OU College of Law graduation ceremony scheduled for Monday, May 17, will be moved to the Lloyd Noble Center. We’re happy to share that with a revised ceremony schedule, we will be able to accommodate graduates and their guests inside the Lloyd Noble Center.
3 p.m. – Monday, May 17
College of Law
Master of Legal Studies
6:30 p.m. – Monday, May 17
College of Law
Juris Doctor and LL.M.
There will be no reserved seating at the Lloyd Noble Center. All seating (including accessible seating) will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Guest seating will be sectioned into groups of four. Graduates will be seated on the arena floor.
To assist with the flow of accommodating six graduation ceremonies inside the Lloyd Noble Center, graduates and guests are welcome to leave after the graduate’s name has been read and they have crossed the stage.
We’re aware of the CDC’s newly issued guidance, but we also know that in Oklahoma, the majority of individuals are still not yet fully vaccinated. In light of that, and because it is too late for OU to change its protocols for events of this scale, we will still strongly encourage mask wearing, particularly for those who are not fully vaccinated. We also understand and respect those fully vaccinated individuals who choose to follow the new CDC recommendations relative to masking during graduation activities.
All guests and graduates will pass through a security screening before entering the Lloyd Noble Center.
The clear bag policy remains in effect at the Lloyd Noble Center. To view a list of prohibited items, click here. Umbrellas will be permitted.
We appreciate your flexibility and understanding as we work to provide graduation ceremonies honoring the OU Classes of 2020 and 2021, complete with our graduates and their guests.
