Suggested guest attire?
It can be mild and sunny or cold and rainy in Connecticut in late May. Recent Commencement weekends have had both weather extremes, so flexibility and practicality are good planning principles. Dress with an eye for the weather and comfort. Low heels or flats are appropriate for navigating the grass and mulched pathways of Old Campus. Rain gear, including water-impervious footwear, is important. Sunglasses and hats may also be useful. Woolsey Hall, site of Baccalaureate services for undergraduates and the Graduate School’s diploma ceremony, is not air-conditioned. Layers of clothing is a suggested strategy.
