Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ President Ana Mari Cauce greeted students Tuesday afternoon near Denny Field, and Provost Tricia Serio will welcome more students Thursday morning. Move-ins are scheduled to take place through the end of the week.

The week will culminate with the New Student Convocation ceremony, which will include an official Husky welcome to the new class from President Cauce and other campus leaders, including the Board of Regents and deans of all 16 Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ schools and colleges. The ceremony will start at 10 a.m. Sunday in Alaska Airlines Arena at Hec Edmundson Pavilion and be live streamed . Later in the afternoon, new students are invited to participate in forming a giant “Wâ€� on Alaska Airlines Field at Husky Stadium, as part of the annual Husky Kickoff celebration.
