Just a reminder that all graduates and attendees are asked to please respect each other and Villanova University, which has so graciously agreed to host Delaware County Community College’s 2014 Commencement. This ceremony is first and foremost about our graduates.

• Please refrain from shouting, loud talking and rude behavior
• Both graduates and attendees should remain seated during the reading of the graduates' names
• Photography is permitted from your seats only, but please be mindful of not blocking the view of others who are nearby. After the ceremony, graduates will have the opportunity to purchase photos taken by a professional photographer contracted by the College.
