Commencement for this year’s class will be on May 23, said spokeswoman Leslie Weddell.
The ceremony for the class of 2020 which did not have a graduation last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic will be a week later, on May 30.
Both events will begin at 9 a.m. at the new Weidner Field stadium for the Switchbacks FC, off Cimarron Street in downtown.
Graduates will be allowed two guests each.
“It was really important to the students to have an in-person commencement, so Colorado College has been working with the El Paso County Health Department on guidelines,” Weddell said.
The ceremony will look a little different this year, with pandemic restrictions in place, she said.
