A look back at two emotional years
The honour of representing the Ottawa 2022 cohort went to Ashley Côté, a graduate of the Veterinary Technician program, who was happy to remind her colleagues and the many guests who came to celebrate some of the adventures experienced by the group: “How can I forget when Liane and I were thrown by an angry goat that clearly didn’t want a tag in its ear?” This collegiality of the 2022 cohort was evident throughout the ceremony.
Governor General’s Academic Medal
The Governor General’s Academic Medal, awarded to a full-time student who has achieved the highest-grade point average in a program that is at least two years in length and leads to a degree, is awarded this year to Gabriella Varagnolo, a graduate of the Early childhood education program in Windsor.
