Fall 2024 Cap and Gown Pickup, held over two days, is an event serving graduating students who will be attending the Fall Commencement Ceremonies. When ordering regalia, student have the option to select a 'campus pick-up option', as opposed to a home delivery option. Students who select the campus pickup option will pick up their regalia at this event.  Additional Commencement ceremony information and some fun free giveaways will also be available, so you won't want to miss out!  Regalia will be available to order through our regalia vendor, Herff Jones, via the Commencement Regalia webpage.

The BFA Thesis Exhibition is the pinnacle of the education of MSU Denver’s Studio Art and Communication Design students. Graduating students present their thesis work in a gallery exhibition at Center for Visual Art, Metropolitan State University of Denver (CVA), offering students valuable exposure to the broader local arts community. The BFA students embrace this opportunity to express their conceptual, aesthetic, and philosophical ideation through a cohesive body of work. These diverse works offer a chance to see MSU Denver’s emerging art and design talent.

Who? Faculty of any type as well as any staff who want to get a significant amount of writing done in the fall. What? A sit-down-and-write group, also known as a shut-up-and-write group, made possible by Faculty Affairs, the Office of Diversity and Inclusion, and the CTLD. The first 20-30 minutes will feature goal-setting, accountability, and productivity exercises and discussions. The last 90 minutes (MINIMUM) will be us writing. That’s right (write!): participants will write on their own projects, supported and inspired by the writing of others. When? Thursday afternoons from 2-4, beginning 8/29 and continuing through 12/5 Where? The kick-off will be on 8/29 in the CTLD with remote participation possible. All meetings will be hybrid, so you can show up in person or online. Why? Tons of research on writing productivity supports the idea that writing in community (also known as body doubling) is a powerful strategy for getting more writing dwone. You’ll get accountability and a sense of shared purpose.
