[Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![](https://blog.jjc.edu/hubfs/Graduation%20-%20Love.jpg)](https://blog.jjc.edu/5-emotions-graduation-day) After two years of navigating virtual and drive-thru graduation ceremonies, Joliet Junior College is excited to return to a traditional format this year to celebrate the Class of 2022! JJC is holding two in-person ceremonies at our Event Center at Main Campus on Friday, May 20. With two ceremonies, the college can maintain social distancing and also provide each graduate with four tickets for their family and friends. Masks will be optional. Those who wish to wear a mask are encouraged to do so. The afternoon ceremony begins at 12:30 p.m., with the evening ceremony starting at 6:30 p.m. The college’s [graduation page](https://www.jjc.edu/graduation) details the times that specific degrees and certificates will be awarded.  No doubt the emotions will be high for our students as they prepare to take the next steps in their academic and career journeys. Which of these emotions do you think you'll identify with when the moment arrives?  [Read More](https://blog.jjc.edu/5-emotions-graduation-day) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.jjc.edu/5-emotions-graduation-day#comments-listing) Tags: [Just for Fun](https://blog.jjc.edu/topic/just-for-fun), [graduation](https://blog.jjc.edu/topic/graduation), [JJC Alumni](https://blog.jjc.edu/topic/jjc-alumni) [All posts](https://blog.jjc.edu/all) ### Subscribe to Email Updates ### Recent Posts ### Posts by Topic -
