Past Friendship Oak Award
Southeastern has always been known for fostering a strong family atmosphere among
our students, faculty, and staff. It is what sets us apart from many other institutions.
Once a Lion, always a Lion.
Each spring, the Southeastern Alumni Association hosts the Golden Silence Ceremony.
The annual event brings the campus community together for a remembrance ceremony in
honor of members of the Southeastern family â students, faculty, alumni, staff, and
friends of the University â who passed away the previous year.
