Program etiquette

This ceremony is an exciting and memorable occasion for all of our students, but it is also a solemn one. Leaving before the program has ended is disruptive and disrespectful to others. Students are expected to remain for the entire program.

Out of respect for all students and guests, please switch all of your electronic devices to silent, vibrate or off.

Social media

To Join in the celebration online, we encourage WSU students, staff, and faculty to take photos of themselves, friend, family and colleagues with signs of congratulations and support and share them on social media - Facebook, Twitter and Instagram along with #WarriorClinician hashtag.
