Alumni

All are invited to a centering moment led by The Multifaith Chaplaincy this Veterans Day, November 11th, at 9 a.m. in Bates Veterans Plaza.

Together we will hear reflective readings and interfaith prayers, observe silence, and share in the ritual of placing flowers of remembrance on the memorial.

Prior to the ceremony, coffee and pastries will be available for guests, beginning at 8:30 a.m.

Additionally, flowers will remain at the foot of the memorial until 5:00 p.m. if you would like to have a quiet moment place a flower.

In the event of severe weather, the ceremony will take place inside the Benjamin Mays Center. (Please be advised to bring an umbrella, as we will make every effort possible to remain outdoors.)
