Dalhousie celebrated its newest graduates this past Tuesday (October 8) at Fall Convocation ceremonies.

The ceremonies were the first to be held at the Halifax Convention Centre. Earlier this year, Dal announced that Convocation ceremonies were moving to downtown Halifax in light of forthcoming renovations to the Dalhousie Arts Centre. (Read more.)

Among the excited graduates was a special guest of honour: filmmaker Selwin Jacob, who received an honorary degree from Dalhousie. :
