MEMPHIS, Tenn. —

COVID-19 has thrown everyone upside down and has changed the way things are done. Graduations are no exception.

The University of Memphis is celebrating its spring and summer graduates with a “Touchless Drive-Thru". Students would drive up to receive their diploma covers and Alumni swag.

Nearly 700 students came today to celebrate the hard work they did to earn their degrees.

An online Commencement Ceremony will be held on Saturday for the Summer graduates.

Such a fun day seeing over 700 of our spring and summer grads today at our “Touchless Drive-Thru“. We will be back tomorrow for more fun starting at 10 AM in the Central Parking Lot. We hope to see you there! #MemphisGrad2020 pic.twitter.com/3fUf1PuJ2A
