ESCC announces 2024 graduation parking procedures
Parking procedures for Enterprise State Community College’s 2024 graduation ceremony will be similar to last year’s procedures, thanks to continuing construction of a new Performing Arts Center and other facility work on the ESCC campus, with some changes.
Graduation will be held on the green in front of Wallace Administration Building on May 9. That day, Parking Lot D (behind Forrester Hall and beside Lolley Gymnasium) will be open only to students for parking. All students will be asked to arrive on campus prior to graduation services by 3:30 pm. Students are asked to report to Boll Weevil Central (located in Snuggs Hall) once they arrive on campus. After checking in at BWC, students are welcome to have their photo taken by the College’s photographer at the William “Bo” Weevil statue at the front of the campus from 3:30-5pm.
Friends, family, other spectators and overflow student parking will be located in the Crossroads Community Church (Old College Cinema) Parking Lot across the street from campus and the ESCC baseball/softball complex on George Wallace Drive. Additional overflow parking will be located at Brookwood Elementary School.
Buses will be running to each location every 15 minutes to pick up visitors. Bus drop off and pick up on campus will be located at the track behind Lolley Gymnasium. The last bus will run at approximately 5:45pm for visitor pickup.
Campus police officers and college CERT members will be on scene at all off-site parking locations during the ceremony. All buses will also be available immediately after the ceremony to return visitors to their vehicles.
Handicap parking and parking for special guests will be in Parking Lot A (next to Talmadge Hall). Faculty and staff will park in the green above the track off George Wallace Drive.
Graduation services will begin at 6 p.m. under the oaks in front of Wallace Administration Building on May 9. The ceremony will also be streamed live on the Enterprise State Community College Facebook page.
