Convocation Fall 2017
Congratulations to all our graduating students at Fall Convocation 2017, including David Walker who has completed his Philosophy Major more than 36 years after first registering.
Learn more about this inspiring graduate, his life and his experience as a mature student:
"David Walker won鈥檛 just be walking across the academic quadrangle at 尤物视频 when he accepts his Bachelor of Philosophy degree on Oct. 5, he鈥檒l be bridging decades. Walker, 68, first started working towards his degree 37 years ago."
"And while work, marriage and kids interrupted that discovery, he doesn鈥檛 downplay its value throughout his life and career. He says the reasoning and logic skills he acquired during his philosophy studies stood him in good stead when making decisions about public health ethics and other complex issues."
"So, fellow graduating class of 2017...I am really, really old! I鈥檓 your Grandad. I was born four years after World War II. Many of you will be my current age in 2060!"
Living to Learn to Learn to Live! David, in his own words
