After bidding their parents and families farewell, students joined their peers in Rockefeller Chapel for the College’s formal welcome—the Opening Convocation. This long-standing tradition included a welcome from the Alumni Board; the presentation of the Class of 2022 and entering transfer students by James G. Nondorf, Vice President for Enrollment and Student Advancement and Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid, to Robert J. Zimmer, President of the University; and an address about liberal education at the University delivered by John W. Boyer, Dean of the College. ➡ Subscribe: http://bit.ly/UCHICAGOytSubscribe About #UChicago: Since its founding in 1890, the University of Chicago has been a destination for rigorous inquiry and field-defining research.
