Welcome Day

Welcome Day is a fun-filled event for students starting their academic journey at QC. The day begins with breakfast and a ceremony to march new students through the main gate, with its motto, “We Learn So We May Serve.”

College administrators formally greet students at Alumni Plaza, and an icebreaker is followed by lunch and a concert. At Welcome Day, students forge life-long friendships that will last throughout their college years and beyond.
