Fall 2020 Convocation Ceremonies Cancelled

Spring 2020 graduates and Fall 2020 graduating students received the following email recently about the cancellation of convocation in November.


Dear Humber Spring 2020 Graduates, 

Several months ago, when we made the difficult decision to postpone the Spring 2020 in-person convocation, we noted that the online Graduation Celebration was an opportunity to celebrate your accomplishments and show pride in your achievements.  

We had hoped that at a future date we would be able to mark the occasion with you in person. Unfortunately, as the COVID-19 pandemic continues, this is no longer possible. 

We are proud of you and wish that things were different. We want to celebrate your success.  

While you had the opportunity to celebrate in June, you are invited to join your fellow Fall 2020 graduates for a virtual celebration on Wednesday, November 25 at 1 p.m. EST. This celebration will include an address from President Whitaker, as well as formal acknowledgement of the credential you have earned. 

Graduating students will receive a package from Humber that includes celebratory items to mark this special occasion. Please ensure your contact information (email and mailing address) is up to date on MyHumber.

Please watch your email inbox as we will be sharing more details with the community in the coming weeks. Also, please visit our Advancement and Alumni website to learn more about the benefits and services available to Humber graduates.

Graduating during these uncertain times shows your resiliency and adaptability. You have risen to the challenge and you have succeeded. Congratulations!

We look forward to sharing more information soon. 


Dear Humber Fall 2020 Graduates,

As a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and our commitment to prioritizing the health and safety of the college community, Humber has made the difficult decision to cancel in-person ceremonies for Fall 2020 Convocation, scheduled for November 5. As we want to celebrate your success, we are planning a virtual celebration on Wednesday, November 25 at 1:00pm EST.

Please watch your email inbox as we will be sharing more details with the community in the coming weeks. Also, please visit our Advancement and Alumni website to learn more about the benefits and services available to Humber graduates.

Graduating students will receive a package from Humber that includes celebratory items to mark this special occasion. Please ensure your contact information (email and mailing address) is up to date on MyHumber. We hope this helps to provide you with the opportunity to share your achievements, mark the significant milestone in your academic journey and celebrate with your family and classmates.

While we know that the virtual celebration doesn’t replace your formal convocation ceremony, we hope that it gives you a sense of how proud your Humber family is of your accomplishments.

Graduating during these uncertain times shows your resiliency and adaptability. You have risen to the challenge and you have succeeded. Congratulations!

We look forward to sharing more information soon.
