First Steps and Opening Ceremony
On their first day, new students receive T-shirts in their class color. They wear these shirts to an orientation ceremony that begins at Daniel Pavilion on Washington Street and concludes in Pearce Auditorium. The Daniel Pavilion, named for Carole Ann Carter Daniel, a 1968 Women鈥檚 College alumna, replaced the brick-and-wrought iron arch that for decades served as the symbolic gateway to the 澳门彩历史开奖记录结果 educational experience.
