  <title><![CDATA[Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts to Host Fall Masters Commencement Ceremony]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>The Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts will host the Fall Master’s Commencement Ceremony for the first time this year. The ceremony will be held on Dec. 14 at 11:30 a.m.</p><p>Georgia Tech will implement a new model for commencement ceremonies, effective Fall 2024. The Institute’s growing graduate student enrollment has resulted in an increase in the number of degrees that Georgia Tech awards each semester, as well as the required number of Commencement ceremonies.</p><p>To maintain a reasonable number of ceremonies and ceremony length, Georgia Tech will host a single Institute-wide Master’s ceremony followed by individual College ceremonies. Ph.D. and Bachelor’s ceremonies will remain unchanged.&nbsp;</p><p>The Institute ceremony for Master’s graduates will be held at 9 a.m. at Bobby Dodd Stadium. Please visit the <a href="https://commencement.gatech.edu/">Institute Commencement website</a> for more information.</p><p>All students eligible to graduate in Fall 2024 should have received an email in October with instructions to RSVP for both the Institute and College ceremony in Marching Order. Students may reserve up to five tickets for guests through this RSVP. All RSVPs must be submitted by Friday, Nov. 1 to guarantee participation.&nbsp;</p><p>For more information, please visit <a href="https://commencement.iac.gatech.edu/">commencement.iac.gatech.edu</a>.</p>]]></body>

  <!--  TO DO: correct to not conflate categories and news room topics  -->
  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
