Opening Convocation

When i went to Cramton Auditorium for the Opening Convocation that included President Sidney A. Ribeau, the auditorium was full and they were not allowing anyone to come in. I went back to my room to watch it on TV but found out it wouldn't be playing until later in the day when I would be in class. I found out it would be playing live on the radio so my roommate and I just listened to the convocation. Dr. Ribeau talked about the problems he saw at Howard, and what he believed needed to be changed. He gave a great speech that gave the students and faculty hope for a good future.
