Staff and students welcomed in first event of its kind

The University gave a warm welcome to new and returning students in the first ever Welcome to Lincoln event, held at Lincoln Cathedral on Tuesday 10 October.

Usually the setting for the University’s flagship graduation ceremonies each year, the event marked the start of the journey into the new academic year to recognise the community in which staff and students become a part of when they join the University.

The programme included choral and instrumental music and welcomes from representatives of the University, the Cathedral and the city. Following the ceremony, there was also an opportunity to meet new faces from the University community with a drinks reception.
