The traditional cap toss takes place after all the graduates cross the stage.

“Convocation is a day of celebration and triumph as we come together to honour the outstanding accomplishments of the graduates,” says college president Dr. Lane Trotter. “It’s important to acknowledge the faculty and support staff who supported this group of graduates through to the finish line as well as the personal support networks of each student.”

The theme for convocation 2023 is ÍY,ĆȺNEUEL OL the SENĆOŦEN word for Doing Good Work Together, which is taken from one of the priorities in the college’s 2023-2028 Strategic Plan.

“I’m proud to be a part of convocation and the graduating class of 2023,” says Jessie Niikoi, graduating External Executive with the 91AV Student Society. “We didn’t just gain the knowledge and skills to pursue our goals, we grew as people. The friendships we’ve built, the support we’ve given and received from one another, and the guidance from faculty and staff have all been a huge part of our success.”

Four ceremonies will take place over two days in the PISE gym located on the Interurban campus and include the presentation of four awards.
