Guests with Disabilities
Early seating is available for guests with disabilities and those accompanying them, whose names have been submitted by graduates on their commencement information form. These guests must check in at the Concierge upon arrival at David Geffen Hall. Same-day accommodations cannot be made, so please be sure to include this information when you submit your information form. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience. Please be sure to submit your forms no later than Friday, January 17, 2020.
Photography
Professional photographers will take a picture of each graduate receiving their diploma and it will be available electronically to the graduate. No other photography, unless taken from one's seat, will be allowed. Guests who violate this safety measure will be asked to leave the auditorium. Please inform your guests so that they are aware.
Will Call: Tickets, Gifts & Messages
Tickets left in your name may be picked up by your guests at the "Will Call" desk in David Geffen Hall lobby. University officials and Lincoln Center personnel cannot accept gifts or messages for graduates because of the improbability of delivery and danger of loss.
