The 56³Ô¹ÏÍø holds its 11th annual convocation Sunday, Sept. 25, at Mobius Hall to welcome the class of 2020.
Convocation marks the beginning of a university career that will be crowned at commencement, bookending an important and memorable life experience.
Students walk through a door at convocation with an eye on the exit well ahead. The present links to the future. The formal ceremony also is a tradition for faculty, a time to refocus and recommit to the University’s mission.
At 56³Ô¹ÏÍø Bothell, nearly half the students are transfers at the midway point in an academic career that may have begun at a community college. But many first-year students arrive with the awe of a life change, their first time away from home.
A bookend, an open door, a traditional ritual, convocation also is the first opportunity to look ahead at some practical steps to make the most of your time at 56³Ô¹ÏÍø Bothell. Read more about convocation.
