Students celebrate their graduation from Keuka College, where over 400 received their degrees at the recent ceremony.

More than 400 students are expected to graduate during Keuka College’s 2026 Commencement ceremony later this month.

The ceremony is scheduled for Saturday at 10 a.m. on the lawn in front of Norton Chapel on the college’s lakeside campus.

Keuka College President Amy Storey will deliver remarks during the ceremony. Additional speakers will include Board of Trustees Chair Dr. Twyla J. Cummings and student speakers Akinlana Popoola, a marketing major from Cleveland, Ohio, and Madisyn Robinson, a management major from Morrisonville.

Commencement weekend will begin Friday, May 15, with the college’s Baccalaureate Service, a private ceremony for graduates featuring student reflections and an address from Jeff Bray, associate director of athletics for facilities and alumni relations, and an instructor in the Sports Management program. Bray will also deliver the benediction during Saturday’s commencement ceremony.

The college says family members, friends, and community members are invited to attend commencement, and no tickets or registration are required. Seating on the chapel lawn will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Officials are encouraging attendees to arrive early and consider carpooling due to potentially limited parking caused by recent wet weather conditions. Drivers should also expect heavier traffic in and around campus before and after the ceremony.

The commencement ceremony will also be livestreamed through the college’s website for those unable to attend in person.
