Prince Rupert's Lester Centre is the host venue for the 2023 Coast
Mountain College Convocation for North Coast students on June 6

One of life's passages comes next week for some of the student body of the Prince Rupert Campus of Coast Mountain College.

A potential of over 70 students will participate in the Tuesday Convocation for the Prince Rupert campus, the event set for a 1 PM start at the Lester Centre of the Arts.

The conclusion of their studies from a range of programs with Coast Mountain College will make for a day of celebration; not only for the students, but their families, some of whom may be coming from as far abroad as India, Africa and the Philippines,. 

They will join families and friends from students from across the nation, province, Northwest and Prince Rupert  to bring a chapter of academic life to a close.

The event is also one that will attract both College officials from the main Terrace campus, but local and regional dignitaries.

Those taking in the Convocation on Tuesday will receive diplomas, associate degrees, certificates and other honours.

Participants in the event are reminded to arrive at 11:30AM at the Lester Centre for their gowns with photos to follow at Noon.  The Convocation ceremony will start at 1PM.
