Clarksville, TN – This March, the Austin Peay State University (APSU) Registrar’s Office will host the Spring 2020 Graduation Gala, and all APSU students participating in the Spring commencement ceremony are encouraged to attend this important, celebratory event from 2:00pm-5:30pm on March 3rd, or from 10:00am-2:00pm on March 4th, in the Morgan University Center Ballroom.
