ICYMI: All the excitement and happiness of another successful convocation
June 25, 2019

Another round of convocation ceremonies has come and gone, and the Ryerson community couldn’t be more proud of the 2019 graduating class.

This year’s ceremonies featured six honorary doctorates, 6,165 undergraduates, 486 graduate students and 757 continuing education students. For anyone who wasn’t able to see all the smiling, happy faces at convocation, below is a small sample of all the family, friends and peers who applauded each other for their achievements.
