 The 2023 Convocation is hereby convened! Welcome to UVM. We are responsible for creating and maintaining an environment of learning and discovery and for supporting a community of people with varied backgrounds, perspectives, ideas and characteristics. In a special place, we celebrate diversity. We care about women. We respect our differences. We embrace a free and open exchange of ideas. We ask that we make a commitment to be valued always by the values expressed in our common ground. Respect, integrity, innovation, openness, justice, responsibility.
