Weber State holds one general commencement ceremony celebrating all graduates in the spring. Graduates do not walk the stage or receive their diploma at this event, but celebrate their accomplishments as a group. There are speakers and musical numbers performed after graduates walk in and sit together at the beginning of the ceremony.
Convocation ceremonies are held in both the fall and spring. They are split up by college (for example, Jerry & Vickie Moyes College of Education, College of Science, etc.). There are usually speakers and then the graduates walk across the stage while their names are read.
