- June 5, 2020Alumni Day & Virtual Celebration of the Math Class of 2020
Last time this year, we saw our 40,000th alumnus cross the stage and we got to celebrate every graduate. Unfortunately, we don’t get to do that with the Class of 2020. This year’s graduation will be like no other we’ve ever had because it’s virtual and we hope to hold an in-person ceremony as soon as we are able. But our nearly 1,200 students conferring still deserve a memorable end to their time in the Faculty of Mathematics.
