PFW nixes traditional graduation ceremony
Cites numbers, plans graduation parade
ASHLEY SLOBODA | The Journal Gazette
The region s largest university won t be honoring its 2021 graduates with its traditional in-person ceremony at Memorial Coliseum.
Such a gathering isn t a safe or responsible option, Ronald Elsenbaumer, chancellor of Purdue University Fort Wayne, said Wednesday in an email to campus.
“While Indiana s restrictions on gatherings and crowd density have eased slightly during the past several weeks, a traditional commencement ceremony is just not feasible for an institution of our size,” Elsenbaumer said.
The ceremony was last held in May 2019. In that year, about 1,640 graduates from both Purdue Fort Wayne and Indiana University Fort Wayne were honored, and friends and family packed the venue.

NIKI KELLY | The Journal Gazette
Allen County Republicans will reorganize Saturday at Grand Wayne Center – choosing a slate of officers with two new faces.
Chairman Steve Shine will retain his post and said the new officers on the central committee are reflective of advancing the voices of women and minorities.
Shine begins his 29th year as chair and is senior partner at Shine & Hardin.
Lana Keesling will be the new vice chairwoman, taking over from Candice Fries. Keesling is the Fort Wayne city clerk.
Sofia Rosales-Scatena, public information officer for the Fort Wayne Police Department, will become secretary, replacing Ron Williams.
Nursing is a demanding profession during normal times. But the COVID-19 pandemic has put nurses on the front line of the greatest health crisis in more than 100 years, placing their physical health at risk and forcing long, stressful days and nights that tax energy and emotions.
Through this most difficult year, nurses have risen to that challenge, saving lives and comforting patients and families through their struggles.
Please join The Times Media Co. in honoring and celebrating nurses throughout the area with a nomination campaign and awards ceremony honoring the Region s best nurses.
Starting today at nwi.com/nurses, people can nominate a nurse who made a difference in their life or the life of a loved one during 2020.
