Dear Colleagues,
      Just a reminder that our Spring Commencement will be held this
Sunday, May 5, at 2:00 p.m. at the McKenzie Arena.  Our graduates and
their families and friends will be honored at a reception to be held
immediately following the ceremony in the Tennessee Room of the University
Center.

      We are pleased that Dr. Thomas Zacharia, Associate Laboratory
Director of Computing and Computational Sciences for Oak Ridge National
Laboratory, will deliver the commencement address on that afternoon.

     Please plan to attend this important event at which over 800
individuals will become the University's newest alumni.

thank you
