The Class of 2023 is the most diverse in Boston College history, with 36 percent of the 2,297 students identifying as AHANA+, according to statistics from a University release.

Conte Forum, home to Boston College’s hockey and basketball teams, can only be described as rowdy. Upon entering Conte, one finds themselves among a throng of BC fans cheering and clapping. The same heightened feeling of adrenaline and excitement that Conte gives people was present with the Class of 2023 on Thursday afternoon during Convocation.
