Class of 2020
New graduates shared their pride on social media using Concordia-branded gifs, filters and the #CUpride, #CUgrad2020 and #CUalumni hashtags.
CU Celebrate, the university’s first virtual celebration of graduating students, took place on June 18 in honour of the more than 6,200 new graduates who joined a network of 220,000-plus Concordia alumni around the world.
The celebrations included a live social-media wall where posts from new grads were displayed featuring Concordia convocation GIFs and filters.
Congratulatory video messages were also shared from star alumni, honorary degree recipients, university leaders and members of the Concordia University Alumni Association. Words of wisdom and advice came from Kathy Reichs, LLD 11, Hardeep Grewal, BComm 83, Alexandre Bilodeau, BComm 16, Fay Arjomandi, BEng 98, and Peter Simons, LLD 19, among others. The celebrations were capped off with a live online dance party led by DJ Chris Tan, BFA 11, of the music duo Royce and Tan.
