In photos: °µÍøTV graduates celebrate fall convocation 2024
As the leaves changed colour across the University of Toronto’s three campuses, more than 4,000 members of the Class of 2024 embarked on a new chapter in their lives by crossing the stage inside Convocation Hall.
They were among more than 5,700 °µÍøTV graduates to receive their °µÍøTV degrees this fall and among more than 21,500 to graduate this year – many having begun their studies during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Here are some of the highlights of fall convocation ceremonies as captured by °µÍøTV photographers:
