CONGRATULATIONS

You are the class of 2020. Your experience is unlike any other graduating class. And as you prepare to leave TRU and head out into the world–to a new place, a new job or new studies–you can take that with you. Despite the challenges of COVID-19 and navigating the final few weeks of classes, you persevered, and you’re better for it. The world is better for it. We loudly applaud you.

For now, take the time to celebrate. Explore this site, find your faculty celebration, and leave a note in the guestbook for your fellow graduates, friends and family.

SPRING CONVOCATION BOOKLET

All graduates will have a print program arriving soon in the mail: we’ll be reaching out to confirm your mailing address. You can get started by updating your address in myTRU, and for now, download a PDF of the 2020 Convocation Booklet.
