President Leo Lambert will welcome freshmen at New Student Convocation. Convocation takes place “Under the Oaks” and a lit any of speakers will address the freshmen. When Lambert speaks, he will most likely have an exercise where people stand up and down after he gives them a life scenario. This is to remind every one that going to college is a privilege and every one is not guaranteed to do so. Faculty members and other students will then give fresh men acorns. This symboliz es the start of their college experience and all the poten tial they have to grow into anything they want to be. This mimics the oak sampling tra dition at Commencement, which symbolizes the growth one endured while at Elon President Fred Young start ed the oak tradition in 1991 and Lambert started the acorn tradition in 1999. Since then over 21,000 acorns have beetJ handed out. NEWS BRIEFS JANE SEIDEL 1 FILE PHOTO Freshman student receives an acorn at 2015 new stu* dent convocation.
