Transfer Student Convocation is one of the many events and activities that make up New Seawolves Welcome Week.
College life is full of milestone moments. Picking your major. Your first college class. Your last final exam. Interviewing for and perhaps even landing your first full-time job. Walking across the graduation stage.
However, the moments no one talks about are those first moments as a college freshman. Emotions are high; some people have never been away from home before. Some miss their siblings. Some cannot get comfortable in a dorm bed. And, it can be lonely.
While we often put emphasis on milestone moments, it is this first touchpoint with the college experience that sets the stage for the entire experience. That’s why Stony Brook University’s New Seawolves Welcome Week has become a critical part of welcoming the newest incoming class to our campus community.
