The phrase 鈥榟erea t艒 waka鈥� means 鈥榯ie up your waka鈥� and is a reference to what we do when our waka (sailing vessel) comes into landing 鈥� we tie it firmly to the shore so that it doesn鈥檛 drift away.

The thought behind our translation is that the waka is a metaphor for our students arriving here at UC. On your first day (Welcome Day), you are metaphorically tying your waka to the shoreline that is UC to ensure your grounding here is firm.
