UHV starts year with convocation event


About 600 faculty, staff and students listen to University of Houston-Victoria President Bob Glenn, right, on Wednesday during the university’s Convocation event, and members of the UHV Student Government Association Executive Board, left, led the crowd in singing the university’s alma mater. The university hosts convocation at the beginning of every school year to inspire and encourage students and employees. After the event, students and employees were given UHV T-shirts and had lunch in Jaguar Hall Dining. Freshmen had the opportunity to sign a poster for their graduating class of 2023.

The University of Houston-Victoria, located in the heart of the Coastal Bend region, offers courses leading to more than 65 bachelor’s and master’s degree programs and concentrations in the schools of Arts & Sciences, Business Administration, Education & Human Development, and Nursing. UHV provides face-to-face classes at its Victoria campus as well as teaching sites in Fort Bend and Harris counties, and online classes that students can take from anywhere. Since its founding in 1973, UHV has provided students with a quality university education from excellent faculty at an affordable price.
