Welcoming Convocation kicks off new year

Welcoming Convocation, one of Western's most meaningful traditions, was held at 7 p.m. on Sept. 24, 2013 in the Performing Arts Center Mainstage Theatre. The event included remarks by WWU President Bruce Shepard, Professor Thor Hansen, Associated Students President Carly Roberts, and a special address by Eileen Coughlin, vice president for Enrollment and Student Services. Afterwards, WWU staff, faculty and current students lined the campus walkways and welcome new students to the Western and Bellingham communities.
