The University of Kansas has announced fall degree candidates from Wyandotte County.
They are part of a group of more than 1,250 candidates for degrees this fall from throughout Kansas, the nation and 18 other countries.
Because KU conducts only one formal commencement ceremony each year, many of these graduates will return Sunday, May 15, 2016, for the university’s spring ceremony. However, some schools and programs conduct fall recognition ceremonies.
Diplomas are officially conferred in January 2016.
