Commencement
Commencement is a time for the FIT community to express pride in our graduates as they celebrate their academic achievement and move into the next stages of success and leadership.
Weather Information for Ceremonies at Central Park
All undergraduate ceremonies will take place rain or shine. Ponchos will be provided if it rains. The only cause for cancellation of an event is due to lightning within a 15-mile radius and/or winds over 75 mph. The venue will be monitoring the weather for each ceremony and the general manager will make the decision, if necessary, to cancel the event. The venue will communicate a cancellation on their website and social media channels and FIT will also communicate any cancellation(s) via the college’s communication channels.
