UNIVERSITY OF MOBILE

The University of Mobile welcomed incoming students on the first day of class with the President’s Commissioning, a tradition in which new students touch the Great Commission Globe to begin their college career.

Students, parents, faculty and staff gathered on the front lawn of Weaver Hall on campus to watch the commissioning of new students on Aug. 17.

“We’re back from the longest spring break ever,” said UM President Lonnie Burnett during a brief address. “I am just thrilled to see students on our campus.” (UM)
