Reminders

  • This year’s Commencement speaker is Sasha Kramer ’99.

  • Reed’s website contains up-to-date information, including the schedule of events and frequently asked questions.

  • Parking will be limited. Traveling to campus by Uber/Lyft/cab may be easier. If you decide to drive, arriving early is a good idea. Golf carts will travel from Reed's parking lots to the center of campus to assist guests.

  • For accessibility, there is a paved sidewalk and temporary flooring in the tent aisles. Please contact the conference & events planning office if you need any type of accommodation or if you have questions. The ceremony will have ASL interpreters.

Call us at 503-777-7522 or send an email with any questions. We look forward to celebrating with you!
