FRESHMAN CONVOCATION<br />

day<br />

52<br />

One of the first things President Junn did at <strong>Stan</strong>islaus <strong>State</strong> was <strong>to</strong> reestablish<br />

the Freshman Convocation ceremony for incoming freshmen. This<br />

was done not only <strong>to</strong> revive a University tradition, but most importantly <strong>to</strong><br />

make sure our incoming students felt welcome at their new home. There has<br />

not been a Freshman Convocation ceremony at <strong>Stan</strong> <strong>State</strong> since 2004, and<br />

President Junn was very excited <strong>to</strong> bring it back. Several speakers addressed<br />

our incoming freshman during the ceremony, including Provost James Strong<br />

and Vice President for Student Affairs Suzanne Espinoza. The purpose of this<br />

ceremony was <strong>to</strong> bring freshmen students <strong>to</strong>gether, <strong>to</strong> motivate them, and <strong>to</strong><br />

help them realize they can accomplish their goals and graduate in four years.<br />
