Dear Community Members, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As we begin to welcome our community members back onto our campuses today, I want to provide you with an update on our Fall 2021 convocation ceremonies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
After careful consideration, given the ongoing public health concerns resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and current public health restrictions, 快播视频, Ryerson University, Seneca College, and the University of Toronto have each made the difficult decision not to hold in-person Fall convocation ceremonies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although each institution will have a unique approach to celebrating their graduates this year, we know that this news will still be disappointing to many of our community members. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here at York, we are committed to ensuring that all of our graduates have the opportunity to join us for in-person celebrations when it is safe to do so, and we look forward to acknowledging the achievements of our graduates in person at a future date. In the meantime, the University is working to create a memorable virtual<\/em> graduation celebration for this fall, which will include the delivery of special graduation packages containing diplomas and other commemorative items. We are also planning to enhance our Fall celebration event with a variety of in-person activities, including diploma pick-up and photo opportunities, as public health guidelines allow. More information on these plans will be shared with graduating students shortly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n While we know the Fall convocation ceremonies may look different than many of us had hoped, we remain incredibly proud of our graduating students, and the determination and perseverance they have shown throughout their time at York. Earning a university degree is a remarkable achievement at any time, but it is all the more extraordinary during a global pandemic. Rhonda L. Lenton <\/p>\n\n\n\n President and Vice-Chancellor <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Chers membres de la communaut\u00e9, <\/p>\n\n\n\n Alors que nous commen\u00e7ons \u00e0 accueillir les membres de notre communaut\u00e9 sur nos campus aujourd\u2019hui, je souhaite vous fournir une mise \u00e0 jour sur nos c\u00e9r\u00e9monies de remise de dipl\u00f4mes de l\u2019automne 2021. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Apr\u00e8s m\u00fbre r\u00e9flexion, compte tenu des pr\u00e9occupations actuelles de sant\u00e9 publique r\u00e9sultant de la pand\u00e9mie de la COVID-19 et des restrictions sanitaires actuelles, l\u2019Universit\u00e9 York, l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Ryerson, le Coll\u00e8ge Seneca et l\u2019Universit\u00e9 de Toronto ont pris la d\u00e9cision difficile de ne pas organiser de remise des dipl\u00f4mes en personne cet automne. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Chaque \u00e9tablissement aura une approche unique pour c\u00e9l\u00e9brer ses dipl\u00f4m\u00e9s cette ann\u00e9e, mais nous comprenons que cette nouvelle sera d\u00e9cevante pour de nombreux membres de notre communaut\u00e9 <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00c0 York, nous nous engageons \u00e0 faire en sorte que tous nos dipl\u00f4m\u00e9s et dipl\u00f4m\u00e9es aient la possibilit\u00e9 de se joindre \u00e0 nous pour des c\u00e9l\u00e9brations en personne lorsque cela sera s\u00e9curitaire. Nous avons h\u00e2te de reconna\u00eetre les r\u00e9alisations de nos dipl\u00f4m\u00e9s et dipl\u00f4m\u00e9es lors d\u2019une c\u00e9l\u00e9bration en personne \u00e0 une date ult\u00e9rieure. Entre-temps, l\u2019Universit\u00e9 pr\u00e9pare une c\u00e9r\u00e9monie virtuelle de remise des dipl\u00f4mes m\u00e9morable cet automne, qui comprendra la livraison de trousses sp\u00e9ciales contenant les dipl\u00f4mes et d\u2019autres articles comm\u00e9moratifs. Nous pr\u00e9voyons \u00e9galement rehausser cette c\u00e9l\u00e9bration d\u2019automne en organisant diverses activit\u00e9s en personne, notamment la collecte des dipl\u00f4mes et des s\u00e9ances photo, si les directives de sant\u00e9 publique le permettent. Plus d\u2019informations \u00e0 ce sujet seront communiqu\u00e9es prochainement aux finissants et finissantes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Les c\u00e9r\u00e9monies de remise des dipl\u00f4mes de cet automne seront diff\u00e9rentes de nos esp\u00e9rances, mais nous sommes extr\u00eamement fiers de nos dipl\u00f4m\u00e9s et dipl\u00f4m\u00e9es, de leur d\u00e9termination et de leur pers\u00e9v\u00e9rance tout au long de leur parcours \u00e0 York. L\u2019obtention d\u2019un dipl\u00f4me universitaire est toujours une r\u00e9alisation marquante, mais elle l\u2019est d\u2019autant plus durant une pand\u00e9mie mondiale. Rhonda L.
