To our #UWinGrad2021 students, congratulations!!

Nothing can replace the experience of crossing the Convocation stage and having your accomplishment recognized. While the ceremony is virtual, your achievements are indisputable. While we cannot gather to celebrate them in person, we stand “Windsor Proud” in spirit, take pride in your hard work and dedication that has led you to this most extraordinary triumph at the University of Windsor. You are joining a proud, strong network of over 150,000 UWindsor alumni worldwide. We cannot wait to see the impressive things that you will accomplish next.

This ceremony includes the traditional elements of convocation, including an address from the Chancellor, Dr. Mary Jo Haddad, and President and Vice-Chancellor, Dr. Rob Gordon, along with the most crucial part, the conferring of degrees.
