- Schedule a meeting with the EC and interested club members to discuss which class members should graduate. You should prepare for the meeting by dividing the class into "almost certainly graduating", "almost certainly not graduating", and "needs discussion", and may want to tell likely meeting attendees who is on the "needs discussion" list in advance so they can keep an eye out.
- Find someone to choreograph and lead the Grand March (typically Veronica McClure)
- Take Badge Orders from the club and graduating class (err on the side of getting badges for anyone who might graduate) (see Club badges)
- Get the class started thinking about class hack tips - you'll probably want to mention some hack tips that have been done in the past and worked well (see Big List Of Hack Tips for ideas) Also, don't forget to explain that they're optional and don't affect who graduates and mention the no-hazing policy.
A week ahead:
- Find someone to organize the punch (Brian might be willing)
- Find someone to get/make cake (Barbara Steele has gotten it from Costco in the past)
- Check on the supply levels of cups/plates/forks; if they are low, ask the Treasurer to order more from ecat
- Fill out, print & sign diplomas (Diploma Template.doc, as fonts vary by computer, you might need to pick a new font; aim for something with Chancery in its name)
- Get graduation folders from the locker, or if there aren't enough, talk to the Treasurer
- Tell Ted what the class hack tips will be, and ask about going until 11 on graduation
