Purpose of Convocation
The definition of “Convocation” is a gathering. The College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences (CPHS) at Campbell University begins each new academic year with a convocation ceremony to gather all students together, to welcome new and returning students and to honor those students who will be graduating at the end of the academic year.
Attendance
This year’s convocation ceremony will be on Friday, August 24, at 10:30 a.m. in Turner Auditorium, D. Rich Hall. Graduate classes for that day are cancelled to allow all graduate students to attend. Attendance by card swipe will be required (students need to bring ID cards) and students are asked to inform their Department if they are unable to attend, as the names of students not in attendance will be provided to the Department Chairs and the Admissions’ Office.
