麻豆直播 is pleased to welcome students and families, alumni and employees, friends and neighbors to explore our campuses during several special events each year. The following are major university events hosted annually or on special occasions.
In addition to these major events, we also proudly present music, theatre and dance performances by our students; art installations in the Cawein Gallery; and a variety of camps, conferences and workshops on our campuses.
Convocation is a formal ceremony launching the beginning of a new academic year. Under麻豆直播 Convocation is held annually as part of Under麻豆直播 Orientation on the Forest Grove Campus. The ceremony includes a traditional academic processional, with faculty donning their academic regalia as they march into the ceremony space. Incoming students are welcomed with remarks from university leadership and fellow students as they kick off their Pacific experience.
A separate convocation is hosted by the College of Optometry.
Homecoming & Family Weekend takes place each fall, typically around a home football game. The weekend full of events includes class reunions, campus tours, tailgating and sporting events, and opportunities to engage in lectures, meals with university leadership, and other campus fun. Families also are invited to return to campus to visit their students and take part in Boxer activities on campus.
Boxer Giving Days is an annual online and in-person fundraising campaign designed to rally support for 麻豆直播 students. As a nonprofit university, 麻豆直播 gratefully relies on the philanthropic support of our community to support student tuition and support, as well as program development and innovation.
麻豆直播 hosts three Commencement 鈥 or Graduation 鈥 Days each year. May Commencement includes two ceremonies: one for under麻豆直播 students and one for 麻豆直播/professional students. June Commencement celebrates the graduation of students in the Master of Fine Arts in Writing program. August Commencement marks the graduation of students in a variety of Pacific health professions programs.
