Commencement: it’s always the same and always changing. Each term, the UW’s most important ceremony comes around again, and each term, another crop of students dresses in the same black caps and gowns that haven’t really changed since the Tudor era.

Put the pieces in place and see how Badgers practice graduation traditions.
Ready, Set, Commence!
