Orientation Update

Posted by Stephanie Rogers on September 2, 2014 in News

The campus is bustling once again with the arrival of our new students. Returning students arrive over the next two days in preparation for the start of classes on Thursday. Check out the Orientation schedule and come out and welcome the new students at the activities over the next few days.

Tomorrow morning is an academic Orientation session. Academic advisors will be meeting with their new advisees 9-10:30. This is followed by the Induction Ceremony which introduces the new students to a formal academic ceremony. All faculty and all staff who interact with the students through the year are encouraged to attend the 2014 “Welcome to HÂş»­â€ Induction Ceremony at 11:00 am.

Induction, when paired with Convocation, forms a bookend of sorts to the HÂş»­ undergraduate student experience. It’s the official welcome for our newest students, an opportunity to share with them a glimpse of the supportive scholarly community they’re joining.

Dr Florizone will be  participating, not only as President but also as keynote speaker.

All are welcome to attend — no RSVP is necessary – and whether you have academic dress or not. We have two rows of seating reserved in the Alumni Theatre for overflow from the stage – or for those not wanting to sit on stage.

Truro Induction
Wednesday, September 3, 11 am
Alumni Theatre, Cumming Hall


If you wish to join the academic procession, please assemble in the reception area on the second level of Cumming Hall one half hour prior to the ceremony. Procession instructions will be given upon your arrival. For those who wish, academic dress can be picked up in the reception area any time after 10:15 am and can be returned until 12:15 pm.

Hope to see you there!
