Technical College of the Lowcountry’s Class of 2021 will be turning tassels two ways this Friday.
The school is hosting a drive-through celebration at the college’s New River Campus in Okatie, along with a virtual graduation ceremony for its 342 graduates.
The drive-through ceremony will start at 6 p.m. Each graduate can bring one car, and will have the opportunity to exit their vehicle to walk across a graduation platform and pose for a photo.
Masks are required for this photo op; car decorations and caps and gowns are encouraged. Guests will remain in the car, and each graduate will get a gift bag containing their commencement program, diploma cover and other TCL swag.
The virtual graduation will be held at 7:30 p.m. and premiere on the college’s YouTube channel.
Randy Dolyniuk, chair of the TCL Foundation and vice chair of the TCL Area Commission, will deliver the commencement address.
