Radcliffe Class of 1953 will graduate in an outdoor ceremony if plans presented by Adele Gilmore, Senior Class President, to President Jordan are approved.
"Indoor graduation at Sanders has always been stifling hot, uncomfortable, and disappointing, compared to Harvard's on the next day. An outdoor graduation would be wonderful, especially in view of our plans for an expanded Commencement Week," Miss Gilmore said.
The Senior Class will meet on Wednesday to vote on the schedule of events for the suggested expansion of Commencement Week. The tentative agenda includes the traditional Alumnae Day on Saturday followed by the Baccalaureate service Sunday.
A new addition would be a day at the beach with a clambake as the main attraction on Monday. Tuesday features a tea for parents and faculty followed by Class Night.
