On June 12, a reception for graduating students and their families was held in conjunction with spring convocation 2014.
Organizers of the event were Donna Norwood, Clara Buma, and master of ceremonies Professor Eugene Wong. Reception photographer was Peter Frank, while Mitch Zimmer took photos at the Science awards ceremony.
Fourteen undergraduates and 6 graduate students, along with family members and others attended.
Each graduate student was introduced by their respective supervisors. For the undergraduates, Eugene Wong presented each of them not only with a keepsake coffee mug, but also with a well researched description of the research projects that each student had been involved with during their senior year.
Earlier in the morning, a Faculty of Science academic prize ceremony was held in Talbot College, and two presenters representing Physics and Astonomy were Prof. Jeff Hutter (Associate Dean, Academic), and Prof. Eugene Wong (Associate Chair, Undergraduate).
