CAMPUS TRADITIONS & ANNUAL EVENTS


Campus traditions and annual events serve as significant rites of passage for all college students.  Not only do they communicate what the community values but also signal the passing of annual milestones during the academic year.  Campus traditions and annual events seek to cultivate community, reinforce identity, and contribute to the unique Education City experience.  While the Education City community is still very young, we are already developing campus traditions and annual events anticipated by students, faculty, and staff alike.   

YA HALA



Ya Hala, which translates to 'welcome' in Arabic, is the annual finale of international and university orientations for all first-year Education City college students.  It is a celebrative event to kick-off the academic year that features speakers, skits, food, giveaways, music and more.
