"...the feeling of optimism"

Dear graduating student,

Presiding over Convocation is one of my most meaningful roles as Chancellor. I promise you that the Convocation ceremony will raise within each of us the feeling of optimism and of the goodness of life. I wish you all the best in your final semester at the University of Calgary, and I look forward to shaking your hand as you proudly cross that stage. The honour will be yours; the privilege will be mine.

Yours sincerely,
Joanne Cuthbertson, BEd'73
Chancellor
