INVOCATION
Alan Kaplan
In the toil of thinking; in the serenity of books; in the messages of prophets, the songs of poets and the wisdom of interpreters; in discoveries of continents of truth whose margins we may see; we delight in free minds and in their thinking.
In the majesty of the moral order; in the faith that right will triumph; in the courage given us when we ally ourselves to truth in any form; in the privilege of being co-workers in good causes; we celebrate the unseen goals we share and serve.
Let us build a world safe from war and oppression, free and satisfying, one that ultimately furnishes answers for us all.

In the toil of thinking; in the serenity of books; in the messages of prophets, the songs of poets and the wisdom of interpreters; in discoveries of continents of truth whose margins we may see; we delight in free minds and in their thinking.
In the majesty of the moral order; in the faith that right will triumph; in the courage given us when we ally ourselves to truth in any form; in the privilege of being co-workers in good causes; we celebrate the unseen goals we share and serve.
Let us build a world safe from war and oppression, free and satisfying, one that ultimately furnishes answers for us all.

This program lists the names of individuals who were approved to graduate as of September 21, 2015 and while every effort is made to ensure that this is true and correct, the official Ryerson individual student record supersedes all information contained herein. The university regrets that names which were added to graduation lists after this date may not be included in the program.

CONVOCATION THANK YOU
An event of the magnitude and importance of a graduation ceremony does not happen without the year-long support of a cast of hundreds across campus. Therefore, a sincere thank-you goes out to everyone who assists before, during and after the ceremonies; to the departments who graciously share their staff so they can participate in the celebration of student achievement; and to those who enthusiastically attend.
Each person on campus should be enormously proud as every contribution is essential to the success of our Convocation events.
Sincerely,
Kitty Choi, Administrative AssistantAnn Mackay, ManagerElsie Nisonen, Student Awards Co-ordinatorLise Payne, Events Co-ordinator
