KU Commencement 2023
​

KU Commencement’s most treasured tradition is the ceremonial walk down Mount Oread. It begins on Memorial Drive. From there, graduates march through the Campanile, which superstitious students avoid doing until Commencement. In many ways, the walk is the ceremony. The academic procession is the traditional march into Memorial Stadium and the Commencement ceremony. Marshals of the university lead the procession, which consists of faculty representing KU’s 14 schools, graduating candidates for degrees, and university administrators. Inside the stadium, students proceed to their seats on the field.
