A large contingent of prominent community advocates turned out Dec. 18, in full cap and gown, to take part in mid-year Commencement.

Before a graduation-day audience of about 2,000 at the Weidner Center for the Performing Arts, nearly a dozen members of the Chancellor’s Council of Trustees marched in the processional, took seats on stage, and were introduced and acknowledged for their support of UW-Green Bay.

Posing before the ceremony, above, with Chancellor Thomas Harden (wearing medallion and light blue doctoral hood), are, from left:
