<p>your dad isn’t supposed to go. i definitely did not see any parents in there. i’d be somewhat surprised if they even let him in.</p>

<p>there was a student convocation last year?</p>
<p>Hahaha classic. When did this convocation thing start anyway? I never heard about it before now, but apparently you guys are saying it happened last year.</p>
<p>2008 was supposed to be the first year but TS Fay knocked that out, so 2009 was the first year convocation occurred.</p>
<p>I mean… I really hate those things…<br>
what kind of topics would they make students to talk about? like moral of the story?</p>
<p>depends on your college. clas doesn’t need to be prepared. engineering breaks into small groups where being prepared would make you look smart. there definitely wont be repercussions for not being prepared.</p>

<p>^^ Is this the person who will be speaking at the convocation?? </p>
<p>If it is- that’s rad! I loved reading about this guy when he came out as one of CNN’s people of the year. </p>
<p>At least youll see a really inspirational person =) </p>
<p>And raincoat, Ive met quite a few people who felt the same way about attending UF. (Myself included.)
But Ive had GREAT opportuinities at UF. Really take advantage of all the resources available to you here.
And if youre still not that jazzed about being at UF after your 1st year, you can always transfer! (Just get really good grades and have great ECs)</p>
<p>What are the things that students discussed about the book?</p>
<p>is the fishing any good here?</p>

<p>I’m glad my old college did not participate in that madness. As an alumnus, I am really mortified UF is babying their freshmen in this way.</p>
<p>I didnt attend it. Im glad because I heard it was really boring. I guess I will see what happen because of that.</p>
