MANDEVILLE, Manchester:
More than 800 students were conferred with degrees and diplomas during the Northern Caribbean University’s historic virtual graduation ceremony on Sunday.
NCU President Dr Lincoln Edwards said the university remains resolute in changing lives through education.
“. NCU builds character, creativity, and competence in our students . . Our students have demonstrated, nationally and internationally, what is possible when they are provided with opportunities, the right guidance, and an atmosphere in which they can unleash their creative energy,” the president said.
Edwards said that partnerships with international institutions have boosted the university’s efforts in carrying out its mandate.
The graduation ceremony was held virtually because of the health risks associated with the coronavirus pandemic and a gathering ban of no more than 15 persons.
