Commencement 2018

On May 19, 2018, the Illinois College of Optometry celebrated its 175th Commencement. Together, we welcomed 154 new doctors into the profession of optometry. This year’s ceremony was in a brand new location- the Chicago Symphony Center. The 2018 Commencement Address was delivered by ICO’s president, Dr. Arol Augsburger, who will be retiring later in the year.
