More than 1,000 incoming students gathered for Convocation in the Rec Center. Life Is Good co-founder Bert Jacobs was just one of many speakers to appear at the convocation. Chancellor Marty Meehan made his first convocation speech as chancellor telling the students that he could relate to their nerves and excitement as he is a UMASS alumni.
