Senior Convocation
 

Jonathan Yasuda '05A "for seniors, by seniors" event, the Senior Convocation invites seniors to reflect on the challenges and accomplishments of their first three and a half years of college and to consider how they will use their remaining time at Holy Cross to shape their lives and their life's work. Through a series of talks, personal stories, music and performances, seniors are challenged to ask themselves, "How can I best use the time I have left at Holy Cross to shape the person I want to become?"

Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2008
Convocation at 5:30 PM in Saint Joseph Memorial Chapel
Reception at 6:45in Hogan Ballroom Lounge
RSVP required to attend.

Central to the event was a series of brief talks by three members of the senior class chosen as "Convocation Scholars" by a committee of students, faculty and staff. The seniors selected used the opportunity to reflect on what they’ve gained, who they’ve become, and what they will take from their experiences during their days at Holy Cross.

Following the Convocation, the senior class gathers for a special reception in the Hogan Ballroom, including a class slideshow, and a performance by the Delilahs.
