As we prepare for the upcoming Spring Convocation, we are pleased to
highlight our valedictorians who will be speaking to their respective classes during their ceremonies.
Question: What does being a valedictorian mean to you?
Answer: Valedictorian is clearly an honour. I really could not have done it without my classmates and my peers. They are the reason I’m here. It could have gone to so many people and so many others in the School of Public Safety, so I want to say thank you, it is absolutely a great honour.

The 2023 graduating class of the Practical Nursing program.
More than 100 graduates from the Practical Nursing program were recognized at a pinning ceremony on Thursday, June 1 at the Algonquin Commons Theatre on the Ottawa Campus. During the ceremony, a special pin is affixed to the graduate’s clothing by a fellow practicing nurse, symbolizing their professional entrance into the nursing field.
A reception preceded the ceremony where students and their families gathered to mingle and sample various canapés on offer. Algonquin College President and CEO Claude Brulé was on hand to take part in photos with students in front of a practical nursing backdrop.

Seeing the beautiful campus, connecting with some great staff and enjoying the small-town feel helped me make my decision. Read more >
