Assiniboine Community College hosted a walk-through graduation event this morning at the Parkland Recreational Centre.
The event was an overdue opportunity to give graduates a chance to celebrate their accomplishments.
Director of the ACC Parkland campus, Valerie McInnes, touched on the ceremony,
"This is a really important day when we can acknowledge all of the work that students have put in. it's a little different from the usual, but it's given a really nice chance to see family and be kind of intimate with students and talk to them. We have about 84 students that are graduating; unfortunately, only about 15 were able to make the ceremony today. But it's really nice to see those accomplishments and to see the smiles on families' faces, even behind the masks."
Valarie thanked all the families who could attend and congratulated all students who could come and weren't able to come.
Moving forward, McInnes says the college is looking towards bigger and better graduations.
