Each year, Randolph College takes photos of each undergraduate and graduate student as they walk across the stage and receive their degree. These photos are available, free of charge, to download and share with family and friends.
It is tradition for each senior to select a graduation squire who will march with the senior and sit directly behind them during Commencement. At the designated moment during the ceremony, the squire will ceremoniously place the Randolph College baccalaureate hood around the senior’s collar.
Although most seniors choose fathers, mothers, husbands, wives, grandparents, alumnae relatives, or siblings to act as their squire, some choose a friend, professor, mentor, or other non-relative with whom they want to share this very special occasion.
