Alumni who graduated with virtual ceremonies over the past two years will have a chance to return to campus, pose for photos, and celebrate with their former classmates at an in-person reunion this October.
The special event, geared to NC’s classes of 2020 and 2021, is scheduled to take place at the Welland Campus Athletic Centre on October 27, from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Doors will open at 2 p.m. to allow alumni the opportunity to pose for photos prior to the event.
Beginning at 3 p.m., alumni will hear from College President Sean Kennedy as well as prominent NC alumnus Jason Ofield, President and CEO of Bulk Barn (Business – Sales and Marketing, 2005) who will speak on the topic of resilience and leadership.
The College’s 100,000th graduate Emily Gushue (Community and Justice Services, 2021) is also scheduled to attend, in recognition of the special College milestone that was marked at NC’s Spring 2021 Virtual Convocation ceremonies.
A reception will follow, which will feature food from Niagara College’s School of Culinary Arts as well as local entertainment.
Please note that this event will not be a traditional convocation ceremony and will not include a ‘crossing of the stage’ as part of the formal program.
This social event is an opportunity for alumni who attended virtual convocation ceremonies to return to campus and celebrate their achievement with their fellow graduates.
This is a ticketed event and guests may attend by invitation only. Invitations to the reunion celebration will be distributed during the weeks ahead and each graduate will be invited to bring one guest. Alumni from 2020 and 2021 are encouraged to check their email for registration details.
