Hartwick College Class of 2016 Graduates

This morning marked the 85th Hartwick commencement on Oyaron Hill in Oneonta where over 350 graduates accepted their degrees in academics, and for every one there was a commemorative bell, a replica of the Hartwick bell that hangs in the bell tower of Yager Hall. Here, Michael Patrick Konze, Oneonta, left, accepts his bell from Alicia Fish, and Duncan McDonald. At the conclusion of the ceremony all graduates ring their bells to symbolize their graduation from the college. (Ian Austin/AllOTSEGO.com)
This morning marked the 85th Hartwick College commencement, with 350 graduates accepting their degrees under the tent on Oyaron Hill.   By tradition, each graduate receives a commemorative bell – a replica of the one that hangs in the bell tower at Yager Hall – which they all ring at the end of the ceremony.  Here, Michael Patrick Konze, Oneonta, right, accepts his bell from Alicia Fish, director of donor and alumni relations, and Duncan MacDonald, athletics giving officer.
