The Barnes & Noble at Mississippi State reminds faculty and staff that orders for spring commencement should be submitted to the bookstore no later than April 29. Orders may be submitted via phone, in-person or fax from 7:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. weekdays.
If you are unsure if you will be awarding a degree or representing your department, you are encouraged to make your reservation and payment before April 29 to avoid shipping fees and incorrect hood school colors.
Store personnel will be glad to take your payment over the phone. Please have your cap size, height, chest or coat size and degree information available when you order. If your department is submitting the order on your behalf, please specify the name of the institution that awarded your degree to ensure correct hood colors.
