Douglas College to honour recent graduates with Alumni DO-Over Celebration

Douglas College will be hosting a reception with over 2,500 attendees to commemorate recent graduates whose convocations were hindered by the COVID-19 pandemic. 

On June 18, alumni who graduated between Summer 2020 and Winter 2022 will gather with their guests at the New Westminster Campus to celebrate their academic and career achievements. 

“This is a wonderful opportunity to recognize our recent alumni and their successes in person,” said Dr. Kathy Denton, President of Douglas College. “Faculty, staff and administrators are all looking forward to welcoming back these graduates who accomplished something so significant during an unprecedented time in the world." 

During this reception, past graduates will have the chance to take photos in regalia, enjoy refreshments, and for many, reconnect with their peers and instructors after more than two years apart. Graduates and their guests are also invited to join the Douglas College Alumni Relations team at their Celebration Lounge in the Douglas Students’ Union building to learn about alumni benefits, mingle and enjoy music from a live DJ. 

This unique celebration will be the biggest on-campus event ever hosted at Douglas College. 

Douglas College is the largest degree-granting college in B.C., combining the academic foundations of a university and the employer-ready skills of a college to graduate resilient global citizens who adapt, innovate and lead in a changing world.
