Volunteers needed: Commencement 2025

Nancy Portner — Fri, 04 Apr 2025 19:23:22 +0000

Volunteers needed: Commencement 2025 Nancy Portner Fri, 04/04/2025 - 13:23

As we approach the end of the academic year, I am asking all ��ƷSM��ӰƬ staff to come together to help make this year’s commencement the best it can be for our graduates and their families and friends.

There are a number of ways to volunteer for commencement events between Thursday, May 8, and Saturday, May 10. We’re also encouraging volunteers to review parking and alternative transportation options to make your experience easier.

Commencement is the university’s number one priority for these three days, so I am also urging supervisors to support their teams by minimizing barriers to participation. Please discuss applicable policies for volunteer leave with your supervisors and department HR liaisons if volunteering during normal work hours.

If you are unable to volunteer on campus, please discuss with your supervisor whether it is possible for you to work remotely, as we will need to accommodate a large number of visitors on campus.

I hope you will find that being a part of these events at ��ƷSM��ӰƬ will remind you of why our university exists and the vital role you play in fulfilling our mission.

Although this is a busy time for all of us, I know your support will be appreciated by our graduates and their loved ones as we celebrate the joy of our university community’s finest moment.

Sincerely,

Justin Schwartz
Chancellor

I&R allows volunteer hours to be granted from work to serve the community in various ways. Volunteer time is credited on a fiscal year basis (July 1 through June 30). Some examples of this service may be as a volunteer worker at a charitable organization or attending a school function for one’s child or relative.

Volunteer leave must be requested from your supervisor and approved by the appointing authority.
16 hours of leave time is granted each fiscal year (pro-rated for appointments less than 100%). Staff who start on or after January 1 receive eight hours of volunteer time to be used before June 30.
Any unused portion as of June 30 is forfeited (hours do not roll forward).

Questions? Ask your supervisor or reach out to any member of the I&R HR team.
