FOOD and BEVERAGES
Food and beverages are available at concession stands located on the concourse of the Crescent, behind
the seating area. However, feel free to bring your own (no glass bottles).
BUSES (Saturday & Sunday)
Saturday: Free buses will be available 10am–5pm Saturday to take you from the TRB Lot to the stadium
to attend Senior Convocation, then back to the TRB Lot after the event. After 5pm, buses will
not be servicing the stadium but will still be servicing other bus stops and parking lots.
Sunday:
Free buses will be available 7am–5pm Sunday to take you from the TRB Lot to the stadium to
attend Commencement, then around campus for college events, then return you to TRB Lot.
AFTER COMMENCEMENT CEREMONY (Sunday)
The Commencement Ceremony will end by noon, then graduates and families will walk or bus to college
events. You’ll receive a Commencement Program at the stadium on Sunday morning that includes a list
of Sunday afternoon college events, a campus map, and bus stops for those events.
Walk:
If the college event location is close to the stadium, you may walk there. After the college
event, go to a nearby bus stop for bus transportation back to the TRB Lot.
Bus:
If the college location is farther away than you’d like to walk, you may board a campus bus
behind the Crescent to take you closer to the college event location. After the college event,
go to a nearby bus stop for bus transportation back to the TRB Lot.
LARGE-SCREEN INDOOR VIEWING ON SUNDAY
We have arranged for a large video screen at Newman Arena in Bartels Hall to view the Commencement
procession and ceremony indoors, beginning at 10:00am. You may want to consider this option in the
case of extreme heat, cooler temperatures, or to avoid hours in direct sun. Any guests are welcome to
watch the indoor broadcast on Sunday (not available on Saturday for Convocation). There are no
reservations required and no tickets needed.* To get to Bartels Hall, you may use your blue permit to park
in the TRB Lot, ride the shuttle bus to the stadium, exit the bus, and walk across the street to Bartels Hall.
*If the Severe Weather Plan is enacted, then SWP tickets (see below) will be required for admission to this location.
MEDICAL and RESTROOM FACILITIES
Medical staff and ushers are available to assist guests in case of an emergency. A first aid station is
located in Schoellkopf Hall at the north end of the stadium and in the parking lot behind the Crescent.
SEVERE WEATHER PLAN (SWP) - Sunday
If the Severe Weather Plan (SWP) is enacted on Sunday morning, the university ceremony will be held in
Barton Hall (not at outdoor Schoellkopf Stadium, as planned) and a broadcast of the ceremony will be
shown in 2 other locations noted on SWP tickets. Only guests with a SWP ticket** will be admitted into
Barton Hall or a SWP broadcast location, so plan your carpooling to campus accordingly in the event of
severe weather. You may still use the blue permit to park in the TRB Lot then ride a bus to Barton Hall or
to a SWP broadcast location. Accessible seating in SWP locations is available and does not need to be
reserved in advance, but remember a SWP ticket is required for admission in severe weather.
**Each student’s family received 4 SWP tickets in January (2 for Barton Hall; 2 for SWP broadcast locations).
The enclosed blue tickets are for accessible stadium seating, NOT admission tickets into any SWP location.
The ceremony is webcast at www.cornell.edu, rain or shine, and no tickets are needed to watch online.
Note: SWP tickets are for the University Ceremony on Sunday, not for college or department events.
For information about Commencement weekend, please visit www.commencement.cornell.edu or call our
office at (607) 255-9541. We’ll be happy to answer your questions. We hope your visit to Cornell will be
a wonderful celebration and enjoyed by your entire family!
Sincerely,
Connie Mabry

Directions for Mobility-Impaired Guests Going to College Events
Commencement Day – Sunday, May 24, 2015
Accessibility plans provide parking & seating arrangements for events at Schoellkopf Stadium, such as the
University Commencement Ceremony on Sunday morning. However, guests also need to plan how to get
to the college/department event they plan to attend on Sunday afternoon, following Commencement.
This document is to assist you with your Sunday afternoon plan.
MOBILITY IMPAIRED – Option 2 Blue Plan
When the Commencement Ceremony ends at noon, you may walk to college events or ride a bus from the stadium
Crescent Lot to a bus stop closest to the event. After the event, walk to the bus stop for transportation to the TRB
Lot for your vehicle. Please note that certain venues will require walking directly from the stadium (see below).
If walking will be too strenuous, you need to bring walking assistance, such as a cane or wheelchair*
*Option 1 Yellow Plan is required IF bringing a wheelchair or transport chair, as Option 2 (buses & bleachers)
cannot accommodate a mobility device. If you plan to retrieve a wheelchair from your vehicle to use when needed
(to wheel to an event after Commencement, for example), please switch to the Option 1 plan.
Walking from the stadium is required for getting to these Sunday college events.
After the college event, walk to the closest bus stop for bus transportation back to the TRB Lot for your vehicle.
►Option 2 Guests: From your Crescent seating area, exit out of stadium, walk along Crescent Lot and down to
the Campus Road sidewalk, then walk up/down Campus Road to get to your college event location (see map).
If guest requires transportation for this distance, the Option 1 yellow plan is needed, and please bring a wheelchair.
