What a fantastic networking night at the DBHSC last week 💼

A heartfelt thank you to our incredible panelists for sharing their insights and experiences, and to our alumni and attendees who joined us with energy and curiosity. We’re so grateful to be part of such an inspiring community 🫶

Universities are steeped in tradition, and convocation is where those traditions truly shine. 🎓

Since McMaster’s founding in 1887, hundreds of thousands of students have crossed the stage to celebrate this milestone. Along the way, both official and unofficial traditions have taken shape, making each ceremony uniquely memorable.

As we celebrate our Faculty of Health Sciences graduates tomorrow and Thursday, swipe to discover a few of these traditions ➡️

We were pleased to host an alumni dinner on April 13 at the Manitoba Club in Winnipeg. Alumni spanning graduation years from the 1960s to the 2020s gathered for an evening of great food and even better conversation, sharing memories of their time at Mac and reconnecting across generations.

It was a lovely evening during which wonderful connections were made and past connections were rekindled. Thank you to Mahdi, Kimia, Margaret, Tanya, Hedie, Brian, Cathie, Ray, Luanne, Rick, Kathy, Harry, and Christopher for connecting with McMaster and your fellow alumni in Winnipeg!
