Final students to graduate from Lethbridge College to receive degrees this weekend

The final graduates of Lethbridge College will receive their degrees this weekend. The school has since transitioned from college to polytechnic.

The last students to graduate from Lethbridge College will make history this weekend as they cross the stage at fall convocation.

More than 500 students are receiving degrees, diplomas, certificates and apprenticeship credentials this month, with about 170 of them expected to attend Saturday’s convocation ceremony.

The post-secondary institution transitioned from college to polytechnic over the summer, so fall convacates will be the last ones to receive a parchment from Lethbridge College.

Convocation gets underway Saturday at 10 a.m. in the Val Matteotti gymnasium.
