Lazzara Performance Hall
Friday, September 28, 2012
10:00 am
The University of North Florida's 41st Annual Fall Convocation is a celebration of the accomplishments of many of our colleagues and friends. It is an opportunity to hear President Delaney's State of the University address, as well as the Provost's remarks on the efforts we will make this coming year to strengthen and refine our mission and values. Convocation has traditionally also been a time to recognize the achievements of our faculty in the areas of International Service, International Leadership, Teaching, Scholarship, Service, and Advising. Another highlight of this program is the honoring of UNF 's 35th Distinguished Professor, Mina Baliamoune, Department of Economics and Geography, Coggin College of Business.
