Fall is officially upon us. At Georgian College we embrace the shifting seasons and all the delightful treats this glorious time of year has to offer.

From fall foliage to that extra hour of sleep we all crave, there’s plenty to celebrate, as the air becomes cool and crisp and a brilliant array of colour gently covers the ground.

Georgian celebrates Grads with Virtual Convocation 
This October, Georgian College hosted three virtual convocations in celebration of nearly 2,000 graduates. Students, supporters and viewers from across the globe were invited to visit GeorgianCollegeConvocation.ca to see the ceremonies, learn about alumni perks, shop Georgian Stores bookstore, take part in a fun photo booth and more!

While the whole Georgian family missed being able to celebrate our grads in person, the Convocation team did a great job of coordinating an online celebration that offered a chance to recognize grads individually with photos and allow them to share their favourite Georgian memories and thank their supporters.

Convocation ceremonies for the graduating classes of December ‘19, April ‘20 and August ‘20 can be viewed on the convocation page.
