Ryerson’s English Department Celebrates Their First BA Graduates

On the afternoon of June 12th, Ryerson University’s English Department faculty and staff watched with pride as the very first graduates from the BA English program crossed the stage to receive their hard-earned Bachelor of Arts degree in English.

Prior to the convocation ceremony, the graduating class celebrated at a reception surrounded by their friends, family, faculty and staff. During the reception, the new alumni shared their plans for the future, thanked faculty and staff members for their contribution to their success, and collectively reminisced about the past four years.

Ryerson’s English program welcomed its first cohort in 2011. The Ryerson English program provides students with a comprehensive understanding of English literature and develops “hands-on” marketable skills.

On behalf of the entire English Department, congratulations to the Class of 2015!
