No university journey is without its fair share of ups and downs, but during the pandemic, our 2020 and 2021 graduates became experts in making the best of a difficult situation.
Despite the substantial and ongoing challenges, you shone brightly, showed courage in adversity and did yourselves proud. Here are some of the memorable graduation moments captured in pictures.
Thank you to our talented photographer, and BA (Hons) Digital Photography alumnus Ope Odueyungbo for capturing this special day.
You clapped, whistled and cheered on your classmates as you waited patiently for your time on stage.
