August 19, 2020: Georgia Southern Class of 2024 Convocation

Dear Faculty,

Please join me in welcoming the Georgia Southern Class of 2024. It’s more important than ever to help our students feel welcome and connected to one another and to help convey the academic foundation of their university experience. Convocation will be virtual this year, so our award-winning production team at the MDC has created a truly memorable video that speaks directly to our incoming class.

In this virtual celebration, Dr. Marrero and I talk about the opportunities and academic culture designed to help students succeed. Associate Vice President for Inclusive Excellence and Chief Diversity Officer, Dr. TaJuan Wilson, discusses Georgia Southern’s commitment to inclusive excellence and creating a positive environment for everyone. Student Makenzi Thomas shares how she was able to get the most out of her freshman year.

I’m excited to share this pre-recorded event with you. You can view it here: https://youtu.be/5-XBMfqonTM.

Sincerely,

Carl L. Reiber

Provost & Vice President Academic Affairs
