Boise State University
President Charles Ruch and the university deans and vice
presidents are cooking up a celebration for Boise State’s
graduates. Ruch and the other administrators will be the
barbecue chefs at the seventh annual Spring Graduation
Celebration sponsored by the Boise State Alumni Association
from noon-2 p.m. on Friday, May 16 at the Student Union North
Parking Lot.
In addition to the barbecue,
the celebration will include a live band, children’s games
and a jump house, and free chances to spin a wheel and win
prizes.
Free to graduates, the event is
a chance for graduates and their families to visit with
favorite professors, take pictures with friends or just enjoy
the sunshine. Graduates can pick up two free tickets at the
Student Union Information Desk or the Alumni Center, 1173
University Dr., at the corner of Grant and University.
Additional tickets are $5 and children under 10 are free.
The Alumni Association sponsors
the barbecue every year and it usually draws more than 1,500
people. In case of rain, the event will be moved inside the
Student Union Building. For more information, call 426-1698.
