AU’s Convocation 2022 is coming up June 17, and that makes us all nostalgic for past convocations and graduates.
What was it like 20 years ago? Then-AUSU council president Debbie Jabbour shares her experience of attending AU’s 2002 convocation ceremony. “We started the day off with a pancake breakfast in the parking lot, sponsored by AUSU.” From My Perspective – Convocation 2002, June 12, 2002.
Putting the degree to work. Debbie Jabbour reflects on her recently-acquired degree, further education, and future earnings potential. “While statistics certainly don’t tell the whole story and are open to wide interpretation, I did find it somewhat discouraging to note that none of the high-earning occupations were in Arts, since this is the degree I now possess!” From My Perspective – Graduation – What Comes Next?, July 9, 2003.
