Students and Alumni benefit from Etiquette Dinner

The Durham College (DC) Alumni office with the wonderful support of the DC Alumni Association sponsored three very successful Etiquette Dinners throughout the 2015-2016 academic year with over 150 graduating students taking part.

Taking place at Bistro ’67, Fatima De Valentin, an etiquette consultant, walked guests through a full three-course meal with tips and dos and don’ts, for a fun-filled social learning experience.

“The etiquette dinner was a wonderful evening that mixed delicious food with an educational opportunity,” said Matisse Hamel-Nelis, Public Relations graduate and member of the Alumni Association, who attended the first-ever etiquette dinner as a student. “It was great to learn the various etiquette protocols along with my friends as it eased the tensions whenever we did make a mistake. “
