Brock\u2019s 107th Convocation is unique in the University\u2019s history, but it\u2019s a celebration for the Class of 2020 and all of the supporters who helped them achieve their academic goals \u2014 from family and friends to faculty members, staff and the wider community.<\/p>\n
Since going live for students and their families on Friday, June 19, Brock\u2019s Virtual Spring Convocation portal has been visited by thousands of people from 47 countries around the world.<\/p>\n
The Convocation portal is now available<\/a> for everyone to experience and celebrate like a Brock Class of 2020 graduate.<\/p>\n While all guests see video messages from President Gervan Fearon, Chancellor Shirley Cheechoo and five honorary doctorates, including keynote speaker and former Prime Minister Paul Martin, in order to make the Virtual Convocation experience more personal, each student is welcomed by name and sees a portal tailored specifically to them.<\/p>\n For example, an undergraduate student in the Faculty of Applied Health Sciences would see a welcome greeting from Dean Peter Tiidus and Brock University Students\u2019 Union President Asad Jalib, whereas a Goodman School of Business graduate student will see a welcome from Dean Andrew Gaudes, Graduate Studies Dean Diane Dupont and Graduate Students\u2019 Association Christopher Yendt.<\/p>\n Included on the list of those delivering messages to visitors are:<\/p>\n Honorary degree recipients:<\/p>\n Guests visiting the Convocation portal using the links below will notice the sample experience is personalized for \u2018Isaac Brock.\u2019<\/p>\n The Virtual Spring Convocation portal will remain online for users to visit at their leisure, and Fearon has promised the Class of 2020 an in-person celebration on campus when it\u2019s safe to do so.<\/p>\n Goodman School of Business<\/strong><\/p>\n Faculty of Applied Health Sciences<\/strong><\/p>\n Faculty of Education<\/strong><\/p>\n Faculty of Humanities<\/strong><\/p>\n Faculty of Mathematics and Science<\/strong><\/p>\n Faculty of Social Sciences<\/strong><\/p>\n Brock\u2019s 107th Convocation is unique in the University\u2019s history, but it\u2019s a celebration for the Class of 2020 and all of the supporters who helped them achieve their academic goals \u2014 from family and friends to faculty members, staff, and the wider community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":66572,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[119,36,39,7484,40,7,3319,4052,188,55,37,41,1,4,38],"tags":[159,9127,4402,156,5398,4157,3262,1759],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66566"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=66566"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66566\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":66575,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66566\/revisions\/66575"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/66572"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=66566"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=66566"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=66566"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
