A convocation ceremony will get underway Friday at 2 p.m. in the college’s Eresman Theatre.

The dogs will remain on campus until Dec. 11, when they will be placed back with the organizations who provided them to continue their training.

The inaugural service dog graduation last year also featured seven dogs, each with two or three handlers.
