Norwich holds annual Convocation for the class of 2027

Norwich Together, Norwich Forever.

The Convocation Ceremony that brings together the Norwich community, including students, faculty, staff, and alumni, to commemorate the university's founding principles and celebrate the pursuit of knowledge, leadership, and service.

The slides below showcase just some of the ceremony where Norwich University celebrated the academic success of returning students, officially welcomed all first year students, and challenged everyone to go beyond what they otherwise thought possible.

Convocation is a meaningful gathering that marks the beginning of each academic year, embodying the essence of unity, purpose, and scholarly pursuit. This annual tradition serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy that Norwich University imparts to its community, shaping the leaders of tomorrow.

As part of this year's Convocation, the students of the class of 2027 and other attendees were greeted with a special video message featuring President Mark C. Anarumo, Provost and Dean of Faculty Karen Gaines, and Commandant William F. McCollough.
