The University of ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ at Boulder will hold its annual Fall 2000 convocation ceremony on Thursday, Aug 24, at 5:30 p.m. on the Norlin Quadrangle.
In the event of rain, the convocation will be moved to the Coors Events/Conference Center.
ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥-Boulder Chancellor Richard L. Byyny is encouraging students, faculty and staff to attend. "Aside from commencements, the Boulder campus has few official gatherings for the entire campus," Byyny said. "Welcoming our students into this great university is one of those important occasions.
"This annual gathering helps create a positive atmosphere and an invigorating spirit for the upcoming academic year for students, faculty and staff," he said.
Joining in the Aug. 24 ceremony to help kick-off the new year will be student, faculty and staff leaders; campus administrators; and Boulder community members. Important issues such as diversity, community building and student body profiles will be highlighted.
Students are invited to gather for a picnic immediately following the ceremony.
Parking will be available in the Euclid Avenue Autopark and in the Regent Drive Autopark (Lot 436 on Regent Drive).
