The University of Nebraska–Lincoln will confer more than 1,100 degrees during commencement exercises Friday and Saturday, Dec. 20 and 21, at Pinnacle Bank Arena.
The arena, 400 Pinnacle Arena Drive, will host a ceremony for students earning graduate and professional degrees at 3 p.m. Dec. 20 and one for those earning bachelor’s degrees at 9 a.m. Dec. 21. Doors open to the public at 1:30 p.m. Dec. 20 and 7:30 a.m. Dec. 21.
A special presentation prior to diploma distribution at the undergraduate ceremony will feature the official investiture of Rodney D. Bennett as the university’s 21st chancellor. The investiture will last about 15 minutes.
To maintain a secure environment, the arena enforces a clear-bag policy that limits the size and type of bag that may be brought into the venue. Details are available here. To avoid inconveniences, guests and graduates are encouraged to arrive early and travel light.
No tickets are required for the ceremonies, and there is no limit to the number of guests per graduate. Accessible seating will be available.
Both ceremonies will be livestreamed here.
