Bellarmine University will confer 564 undergraduate and graduate degrees at 10 a.m. on May 10 in the school’s outdoor Owsley B. Frazier Stadium.
The commencement speaker will be award-winning and best-selling author Roger Rosenblatt. He is also a professor of English and writing at Stony Brook University and delivered Bellarmine’s 2013 Guarnaschelli Lecture.
The 61st annual commencement exercises, traditionally held in Knights Hall, will be held outdoors this year to accommodate family members and friends of students who wish to attend the event.
If the weather is severe on Saturday, the event may return to Knights Hall with limited seating, a news announcement on Bellarmine’s website said.
The ceremonies also will be streamed live and broadcast on screens in the George C. Brown Center’s Frazier Hall and the Wyatt Center’s Cralle Theater, the announcement said.
