Grant Hall was the centre of activity on Queen’s campus Thursday with three Spring Convocation ceremonies filling the venerable building.

Each of the ceremonies featured graduates from the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science and the School of Graduate Studies.

During the afternoon session an honorary degree was conferred upon Indira Samarasekera, former President and Vice Chancellor of the University of Alberta and former Vice-President (Research) at the University of British Columbia.

Two more ceremonies will be held on Friday at 10 am and 2:30 pm with honorary degree being conferred upon Valerie Tarasuk and John Baird.

Live ceremony feeds will begin approximately 15 minutes before the scheduled start of each ceremony.

A full schedule of the ceremonies and more information about Spring Convocation, for graduates, parents and family, as well as faculty members, is available on the Office of the University Registrar website.
