Doors open at 7:30pm. Entry and seating will take some time. Plan to arrive at the Farris Center no later than 7:45pm.
Have your phone handy to scan in for Convocation so you can receive credit for the New Bear Bucket List!
Make sure you’re there when the Class of 2028 will gather for the official opening of the academic year. You will hear from the President, Provost, Vice President for Student Affairs, and your SGA President. You’ll receive a Class of 2028 shirt to wear in the class picture and you won’t want to miss the Class of 2028 video and fireworks show!
We will cap off the night with Playfair, where you’ll meet more people in this one enjoyable session than you just might meet all semester! A night full of memories to close out your first day on campus!
Playfair is sponsored by Resident Housing Association (RHA). This event is for first-year students only.
