106 Students To Graduate From Bermuda College
106 students will graduate from Bermuda College in ceremonies scheduled for Thursday, May 17th at 2:30 p.m. on the College field.
The College traditionally bestows the appropriate Associate Degree, Diploma and Certificate status on deserving students in the divisions of Applied Science & Technology, Business Administration & Hospitality, and Liberal Arts.
Ceremonies also feature graduates of the College’s partnership with Mount Saint Vincent University baccalaureate degree programme in Business Administration and Child and Youth Studies. This year, Associate Vice President, Student Experience at Mount Saint Vincent, Mr. Jeff Hollett, will be travelling to the Island to bestow baccalaureate degrees on 16 graduates.
Bermuda College President Dr. Duranda Greene says the College continues to meet the needs of individuals of all ages, and will continue to be the catalyst for anyone desirous of seizing the opportunity toward further education.
“Bermuda College continues to expand in the truest sense of the community college philosophy,” she stated. “In the midst of this prolonged recession, we will ensure that we provide courses and programmes that are relevant to today’s economy – not only with their relevance, but also their accessibility.
“Most heartening of all, is that our community continues to recognise the value that higher education brings to any society, and they take advantage of that opportunity. Every faculty member, member of staff, administrators and the executive remains committed to our mission to set Bermuda’s students on the paths to success, as we’ll be doing on Thursday!”
The College will close at 1:00 p.m. for the ceremonies. All evening classes will be held as scheduled.
