UC Davis graduation re-do after June heat debacle taking place on Friday
DAVIS – UC Davis will kick off the first of several make-up commencements on Friday.
The make-up graduations come after ceremonies in June were cut short over triple-digit heat.
Six people ended up going to the hospital during the ceremonies, which were being held outdoor at the UC Davis stadium.
Friday's make-up ceremony, which is scheduled to start at 10 a.m., is being held indoors at the University Credit Union Center (previously known as the ARC Pavilion).

The school has said that they will be paying for the cap and gowns for every graduate that takes part.
