Hundreds of first-year students joined faculty and other members of the campus community as the College officially launched its 229th academic year during its annual Convocation ceremony. The Hollander Convocation Music Prize was presented to Yutong Wu '25. Wu performed a beautiful rendition of Franz Liszt’s “Consolidation No. 2 in E major, S. 172.” The prize was established by the late Lawrence J. Hollander, dean of engineering emeritus.
