The ceremony will be held in the parking lot of MCCC’s Morris Road lot and graduates and their family members will remain in their vehicles.
The large screens positioned around the parking lot will allow attendees to view the main stage from their vehicles as each graduate proceeds to the stage one by one to receive their diploma.
