These are the words of the Academic Vow, and truly, it is what The UWI expects of its students. The Vow, a sacred part of the Matriculation Ceremony, is recited by the incoming students and this year, they were led by Matthew Peters, President of the Guild of Students. The symbolic signing of the register was done by Kaaria Quash, who has entered the Faculty of Food and Agriculture. In the formal ceremony, chaired by the Registrar on September 18, 2014, students were addressed by the outgoing Vice-Chancellor, Professor E. Nigel Harris; Pro Vice-Chancellor and Campus Principal, Professor Clement Sankat; as well as the Minister of Tertiary Education and Skills Training, Senator Fazal Karim and the Minister of State in the Ministry of Works and Infrastructure, Stacy Roopnarine; President of the UWI Alumni Association, Cheridan Woodruffe; and entertainer, Kees Dieffenthaller delivered the keynote address. The top five SEA students were recognized, as well as athlete Jehue Gordon, for their accomplishments. The UWI Arts Chorale was mesmerizing in its beautiful performances. Photos: GUYTN OTTLEY
