A new academic year is officially underway.

At Convocation, Student Body President Pauline Lu reminded incoming students that “you will not have it all figured out, and you are not supposed to.”

Her advice? “So fail, fail boldly, fail loudly, and fail often.”

Here’s to a year of learning, growing and trying new things. Welcome to the 2026–27 academic year, Knights!

It’s MOVE-IN DAY!!! 💛❤️
