Sacramento State postponed its 2020 commencement ceremonies due to the COVID-19 outbreak, according to a SacSend email Tuesday from Sac State President Robert Nelsen.
Commencement will still occur at a later date, Nelsen said in the email.
Nelsen said graduating seniors should still pay the graduation fee on-time to fund the cost of issuing diplomas after the semester. The portion of the fee not used on diplomas will fund rescheduled ceremonies.
This is a developing story and will be updated when more information is gathered.
