2 MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

It is my honour, on behalf of The University of Winnipeg community, to offer sincere congratulations to each of you on your achievements. Today we gather to celebrate your success and to pause and reflect on where you will go next — whether you are launching a career, pursuing further studies, or taking off to explore the world — you have reached an important milestone on your journey. This is also a time for us to recognize and value the support and encouragement you have received from professors, family, friends, and fellow students who have helped you realize your dreams. It was Rudyard Kipling who said “He travels the fastest who travels alone.” A wise person adds “We who travel farthest, travel with others.” UWinnipeg is located on Treaty One land in the heart of the Métis nation, and we are a richly diverse community. It is our underlying strength. We are deeply committed to reaching out to all students, including those who have traditionally faced barriers to participating in post- secondary education. I hope you have been enriched by the exposure to the many ideas, cultures and life experiences that flourish here. You are now members of the extended UWinnipeg family, joining more than 50,000 people who have passed through these doors as students. I am one of those graduates, and I attribute my academic and career successes to the solid foundation I received at UWinnipeg and the dedicated professors who inspired me to continue to strive and learn. It is our sincere hope that your time at UWinnipeg has allowed you to realize your unique talents as you move forward to create a difference in your community. On behalf of our faculty and staff, congratulations once again and please accept my best wishes for your adventures ahead.

DR. ANNETTE TRIMBEE, BSc, MSc, PhD PRESIDENT AND VICE-CHANCELLOR THE UNIVERSITY OF WINNIPEG

3 MESSAGE FROM THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION

Welcome to the Fall 2016 Convocation at The University of Winnipeg! It is at this important moment that we congratulate the graduating class of 2016 as they celebrate the successful completion of their degree programs. For all of your hard work, and for all you will do in the coming years, we want to recognize and honour your achievements. This year, The Alumni Association Council is proud to present internationally-renowned architectural historian Dr. Frank Albo with the Distinguished Alumni Award for his numerous contributions to The University of Winnipeg. In addition to Dr. Albo’s impeccable academic record, his ground-breaking research on the Legislative Building (the basis for his book, The Hermetic Code) continues to make an indelible impact upon architectural scholarship both in Canada and abroad. As a scholar of global importance and a prominent alumnus of The University of Winnipeg, Dr. Albo is a worthy addition to the University’s distinguished list of honoured alumni. Like Dr. Albo, today’s graduates are poised to make their own impact on the world. The knowledge that our many students have acquired over the past years of dedicated study will undoubtedly translate into a legacy of leadership and lifelong learning. On behalf of The University of Winnipeg Alumni Association and its more than 50,000 alumni, I extend a warm congratulations to our Distinguished Alumni Award recipient, Dr. Albo, and to all of this year’s graduates.

PROFESSIONAL, APPLIED AND CONTINUING EDUCATION 29TH GRADUATION CEREMONY

The University of Winnipeg Duckworth Centre 2:30 pm | Friday, October 14th MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

It is my honour, on behalf of The University of Winnipeg community, to offer sincere congratulations to each of you on your achievements. Today we gather to celebrate your success and to pause and reflect on where you will go next — whether you are launching a career, pursuing further studies, or taking off to explore the world — you have reached an important milestone on your journey. This is also a time for us to recognize and value the support and encouragement you have received from professors, family, friends, and fellow students who have helped you realize your dreams. It was Rudyard Kipling who said “He travels the fastest who travels alone.” A wise person adds “We who travel farthest, travel with others.” UWinnipeg is located on Treaty One land in the heart of the Métis nation, and we are a richly diverse community. It is our underlying strength. We are deeply committed to reaching out to all students, including those who have traditionally faced barriers to participating in post- secondary education. I hope you have been enriched by the exposure to the many ideas, cultures and life experiences that flourish here. You are now members of the extended UWinnipeg family, joining more than 50,000 people who have passed through these doors as students. I am one of those graduates, and I attribute my academic and career successes to the solid foundation I received at UWinnipeg and the dedicated professors who inspired me to continue to strive and learn. It is our sincere hope that your time at UWinnipeg has allowed you to realize your unique talents as you move forward to create a difference in your community. On behalf of our faculty and staff, congratulations once again and please accept my best wishes for your adventures ahead.

DR. ANNETTE TRIMBEE, BSc, MSc, PhD PRESIDENT AND VICE-CHANCELLOR THE UNIVERSITY OF WINNIPEG

30 MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN

Dear PACE Graduates of 2016, Congratulations on your achievements! We are pleased to count you as part of our alumni and look forward to connecting with you many times in the future. As much as you are proud of your achievements today, we are equally proud to count you as part of our University family. PACE students often come to us as avid life-long learners with a tremendous wealth of experience and we feel fortunate that you choose to continue your growth and share those experiences with us. Speaking on behalf of our dedicated staff at PACE, we are thankful for the opportunity to work with you over the last months or years and we hope that we’ve left you with a number of good memories and have been able to influence your careers for the better. Also, we look forward to having the opportunity to brag a little about your inevitable successes and so hope that you will continue to engage with us and let us know what you are doing. Keeping connected with the University will provide you with the opportunity to expand your network by linking you directly to students and future workers.

31 MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

To the PACE Graduates of 2016 On behalf of the staff and instructors at The University of Winnipeg Professional, Applied and Continuing Education (PACE), I offer you our most sincere congratulations on your graduation today. We consider ourselves blessed to have been on this journey with you as you studied at PACE. Whether you studied part-time or were at PACE for a year, we know it took a lot of commitment to complete your program. Many of you uprooted your former life and came a long way, far away from friends and family to study in Winnipeg. Others have juggled family and work life, while taking courses part-time. For all of you, the road has been long and hard, and now that you have reached the end, it is time to celebrate your accomplishment with PACE staff, instructors, classmates, friends and family. Your certificate or diploma is a huge accomplishment, so take the time to reflect on what you have learned both inside and outside the classroom. You are now prepared to do anything you want as you have proven you have what it takes to be successful. The world is a better place with you in it. We are so thankful that you chose The University of Winnipeg Professional, Applied and Continuing Education to be your place of study. Please stay connected with us now that you are a graduate, as there are many opportunities to come back as mentors or guest speakers, and to attend some of our events. Some of you will become employers of future graduates, or even future PACE instructors. Your new journey has just begun! Congratulations graduates and best wishes in your future endeavors.

32 MESSAGE FROM THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION

Welcome to the Fall 2016 Convocation at The University of Winnipeg! It is at this important moment that we congratulate the graduating class of 2016 as they celebrate the successful completion of their degree programs. For all of your hard work, and for all you will do in the coming years, we want to recognize and honour your achievements. This year, The Alumni Association Council is proud to present internationally-renowned architectural historian Dr. Frank Albo with the Distinguished Alumni Award for his numerous contributions to The University of Winnipeg. In addition to Dr. Albo’s impeccable academic record, his ground-breaking research on the Manitoba Legislative Building (the basis for his book, The Hermetic Code) continues to make an indelible impact upon architectural scholarship both in Canada and abroad. As a scholar of global importance and a prominent alumnus of The University of Winnipeg, Dr. Albo is a worthy addition to the University’s distinguished list of honoured alumni. Like Dr. Albo, today’s graduates are poised to make their own impact on the world. The knowledge that our many students have acquired over the past years of dedicated study will undoubtedly translate into a legacy of leadership and lifelong learning. On behalf of The University of Winnipeg Alumni Association and its more than 50,000 alumni, I extend a warm congratulations to our Distinguished Alumni Award recipient, Dr. Albo, and to all of this year’s graduates. Today is a day of celebration! Warm regards,
