BRYAN MCKENZIE The (Charlottesville) Daily Progress Graduating University of Virginia students will get to walk the Lawn in May as school administrators say revisions to state restrictions will allow graduates and two guests to gather for the traditional ceremony. The schoolâs Class of 2020 also will get to attend an in-person ceremony after having its graduation events canceled last year in the midst of the pandemic. Gov. Ralph Northam announced March 18 that he would loosen requirements on elementary, high school and college graduation ceremonies, imposing a 5,000-person cap or 30% of venue capacity, whichever is lower. That, said UVa President Jim Ryan, will make the graduation ceremonies doable.
