This series contains commencement programs for the University of Northern Colorado and its previous names. The information included in over 100 years of commencement programs varies, but typically includes the following: names of graduates with degrees earned, names of honorary degree recipients, names of members of the Board of Trustees, names of speakers, and the program agenda. Some progams also contain messages from the UNC president, speakers' biographical information, pictures, and information about academic regalia, procession, mace, mediallion, seal, and music. A handful of programs contain an insert with the finalized list of graduates. The names that appear in the commencement program are not an official list of graduates.
