UCSC Graduations 06/12/12 AF

More than 2,500 UCSC students will attend commencement ceremonies this weekend.      Students from the University’s 10 colleges will gather on the East and West fields from Friday to Saturday to receive their degrees; most will be awarded with Bachelors degrees, but a select number will receive Masters and Doctorate degrees.     Among the speakers slated to be present at the commencement ceremonies are author Johnathan Franzen, NPR reporter Richard Harris, and former Santa Cruz mayor Ryan Coonerty.    Though new graduates will be entering a tough job market, with the California unemployment rate at nearly 11% in April, plenty of enthusiastic cap-throwing is expected.
