Due to Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb’s decision to extend the state’s Stage 4.5 reopening plan, including the restriction of in-person gatherings to less than 250 people, Bethel University regrets to announce that the rescheduled 2020 commencement ceremony will be canceled. In April, the university announced that a ceremony would be held on Aug. 16, in place of the originally scheduled May 2 ceremony.
