Convocation 2012


This week I had the opportunity to attend the 2012 new student convocation and introductory ceremony. To be honest, at first I was not looking forward to it at all. I assumed we would be sitting through an hour of speeches that would repeat the same thing I’ve heard all month. (How happy they are we are here at SCSU!) Anyways, the ceremony wasn’t just that. It started with the procession. They had freshman students just like myself onstage to light candles which would signify different aspects we should try to involve while attending Southern. We listened to the Alma Mater song sang beautifully by a student as well. Over all, it was an interesting experience. I don’t feel as I wasted my time there but instead witnessed a once and a lifetime moment. We will only be freshman once! Plus, it’s a little more fun when you accidentally sit near the goofballs of the place.
