The PST Program was designed to enable WSU graduates to recognize those who have helped make their graduation possible through their support - moral, financial, or otherwise; this is why we are sponsoring an opportunity to honor these special people. Each honoree who attends the program will be presented with a PST degree, pin and diploma. There is no charge for this program since it is funded through student fees. There will be a special ceremony with university officials and student speakers. The PST ceremony will be held at 4:30 p.m. on April 20, 2012, in Ballroom A of the Shepherd Union Building. A reception for all graduates and PST honorees will be held immediately following the ceremony. In order to honor someone, please complete and submit the form that appears below by March 30, 2012. This is an excellent opportunity for you to thank the individuals who have supported you through your education. Please also e-mail a picture of the person you are honoring to jedwards@weber.edu as soon as possible for use in a special video presentation during the program.
If the person you wish to honor is unable to attend the program, a diploma will still be made available for you to present to him/her. Please complete and submit the form that appears below by March 30, 2012. Diplomas will be available for pick-up beginning April 18 & 19, 2012, in Shepherd Union, Room 406 (none will be available on the day of graduation, April 20).
