TORRINGTON, Wy (KNEP) Decisions have been made regarding the EWC Commencement ceremony.

“We will have Commencement, same date, same time, just virtually,” shared EWC President Dr. Lesley Travers. “This is an important ceremony for our students and we want to do our best to replicate it virtually for them.”

Additional details are being developed for the virtual ceremony and will be shared when available.

The Pinning Ceremony for the nursing students scheduled for Saturday, May 9th will also be held virtually. Exact plans are still under development and will be shared when available.

News from Residence Life for new students: Please note that our current cancellation date for Housing is July 1, 2020. However, we will be extending that date to August 1, 2020.
