Pellissippi State Community College will not hold an in-person Commencement ceremony this August for its spring and summer graduates because of increases in the number of positive COVID-19 cases. Pellissippi State’s summer graduates will be notified by postcard when their diplomas are available for pick up, and the college also will offer all 2020 graduates photo opportunities on campus when it is safe to do so. Spring and summer graduates will be allowed to walk in the college’s next Commencement ceremony as well.
