It’s commencement weekend at Indiana University.
IU graduate students will go through commencement Friday afternoon at 3 o’clock in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. Graduation will continue Saturday morning with the commencement ceremony for Bloomington campus undergraduates at 10 o’clock at Memorial Stadium.
Nearly 21,000 degrees will be conferred at those two ceremonies and others at IU’s regional campuses.
Walt Disney Company CEO Bob Chapek is the speaker for the undergraduate ceremony. He has a degree in microbiology from IU. The university will award him an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree Saturday.
This year’s graduates come from 140 countries, all 50 states and all of Indiana’s 92 counties, according to an IU news release.
