More than 250 students, along with their family and friends, watched excitedly as their names and quotations were projected on a big screen in the River Building Atrium.
“For these students with us today, even the sky may not be the limit,” said André Plourde, Dean of the Faculty of Public Affairs. “We are incredibly proud of them. They embody our values at the Faculty of Public Affairs as we strive to foster informed citizenship, contribute to better democracy, and build better societies.”
