2024 Freshman Convocation - TBA

Convocation is a required event for all Plan II Honors First Year students.  (The only accepted excuses for missing Convocation are scheduled UT classes and Texas Exes Scholarship Award dinners.) 

The official welcome to Plan II, Convocation will feature presentations from the Plan II Director, Dr. Alexandra Wettlaufer, and other Plan II faculty, staff, alums, and students. After the formal program, move to RLP basement for the Plan II Student Association (P2SA) Org Fair in various rooms. 

2024 Voltaire's Coffees (aka VCs) 

At the beginning of the Fall 2024 semester, freshmen will meet in small, informal book discussions with some of the most acclaimed professors at UT—a part of a Plan II tradition called "Voltaire's Coffee." 

Students are required to attend at least one Voltaire's Coffees, but are encouraged to sign up for more (if space allows). Plan II students in P2SA choose the sponsoring professors who in turn choose the books to discuss. The result is a delightful mix of books, ranging from the sublime to the entertaining, covering all areas of study, and a discussion that promises to be illuminating. If the book listed has a translation, please buy the one specified, as different versions can give different impressions. 

Look for more information about how to sign up soon!
