What are convocations?
Convocations are an important part of the general education program at Berea College. These events bring on campus notable speakers, scholars, performers, and programs on a variety of subjects to enhance the cultural, intellectual, aesthetic, and religious dimensions of campus life. Convocations offer information-insights on important topics likely to be part of class discussions. Every student is required to attend seven convocations per semester for which one quarter credit may be earned.
