Let’s kick off the 2025-26 Academic Year together! Join us Monday, Aug. 25, at 9 a.m. in Shove Memorial Chapel for Opening Convocation—a CC tradition where we gather as a campus community to reflect, welcome new faces, and look ahead to the year to come. For faculty members who would like to march in the ceremony, please register today.

Immediately following Opening Convocation, join us on Tava Quad at 9:30 a.m. for breakfast. It’s the perfect chance to reconnect with colleagues, meet new community members, and enjoy a relaxed moment before the first block launches.

Whether you’re faculty, staff, a student, or part of one of the many teams that make CC thrive, your presence matters. Help us start the year with connection, inspiration, and community.

We can’t wait to see you there!
