Welcome to NOVA’s Fall Convocation! Today at 9!

August 16, 2023 / Countdown to Convocation

It’s here! No “almost” about it! Let’s kick off the new school year right!

NOVA’s College-wide Convocation will be held today, from 9 a.m. until 11:30 a.m. at the Rachel M. Schlesinger Concert Hall and Arts Center on NOVA’s Alexandria Campus (AS). Faculty and staff may attend in person or participate in campus watch parties. Brault and Pender staff will participate onsite at Schlesinger.

This year’s theme is “Sense of Belonging.” The morning will feature a keynote address by Dr. Terrell Strayhorn. There will also be faculty, staff and student panels and a discussion of the strategic goals for NOVA’s new strategic plan, Inspiring Excellence: A Bold Blueprint for Student Success.

All NOVA offices will be closed from 8 a.m. until 12 p.m. to allow all faculty and staff to participate in convocation. Breakfast and lunch will be provided for registered guests at both the Schlesinger location and at the watch parties. Check out the agenda and other details at the Convocation webpage. We’re looking forward to seeing you there!
