New Student Convocation / Scarlet Carnivale
New Student Convocation – the university’s official welcome for all new first-year and transfer students – is themed around the Knight’s Call values. It is a spirited, prideful program featuring remarks by the Chancellor, education on many of Rutgers’ traditions, performances by a wide variety of student groups, and messaging around community expectations for our newest Scarlet Knights. The event will take place in the Rutgers Athletic Center and will be followed by a large outdoor carnival-themed celebration.
