The graduation ceremonies at the St. Augustine campus of The UWI (Oct 24-26) have just ended, closing a chapter in the lives of many new graduates as they set off on new journeys. The six valedictorians—Wainella Isaacs, Grace Bhagwandeen, Martrecia Alleyne, Shenelle Ramjewan, Samantha Jackson and Cherisse Ratiram—spoke on behalf of their graduating classes, while each ceremony was addressed by one of six honorary graduands. This campus conferred honorary degrees on the Rt Rev Clive Abdulah and Mr Ian Randle (LLD), Dr Lakshmi Persaud, and Ms Marina Salandy-Brown (DLitt), and Dr Theodosius Poon-King and Dr Elisha Tikasingh (DSc). Best wishes to all the students and honorees. In our next issue we will feature more on our graduation ceremonies. Look out for it!
