It’s a busy weekend for college grads

“Pomp and Circumstance” will be the hit song of the weekend as seven commencement ceremonies take place Friday, Saturday and Sunday for three Madison institutes of higher learning.

Graduation ceremonies for UW-Madison will be at the Kohl Center Friday through Sunday, Madison Area Technical College has commencement Saturday at the Coliseum at the Alliant Energy Center, and Edgewood College graduates will get their diplomas Sunday at the Coliseum.

Traffic on Dayton Street and in the Kohl Center area will most likely be congested, as UW-Madison students continue their massive move-out from Witte, Sellery and Ogg Hall dormitories on Dayton Street and Johnson Street, coupled with five commencement exercises for UW grads.
