‘You’ve made it’: Hundreds of Mt A students graduate in 2024 Convocation

On today’s show, we listen in to the convocation ceremony for Mount Allison University’s arts graduates on Monday afternoon at Convocation Hall in Sackville. About 425 students walked across the stage in two ceremonies on Monday, witnessed by gathered faculty, dignitaries, and family and friends. We’ll hear the voices of multi-faith chaplain Ellie Hummel, university president Robert MacKinnon, 2024 class valedictorian Ellie Smallwood, and honorary degree recipient Alex Fancy.

Plus in briefs: a preview of the agenda for Tantramar council’s meeting tonight at 7pm, and a report from Moncton provincial court, where Sackville’s Tyler Murphy appeared briefly on Monday on charges of manslaughter.
