DC congratulates new president of Trent University Posted on September 23, 2014 at 2:30 pm. Durham College (DC) acknowledges Dr. Leo Groarke on his installation as Trent University’s eighth president and vice-chancellor. Judy Robinson, vice-president, Academic, DC, attended the installation ceremony at Trent’s Symons campus in Peterborough, Ont. on Monday, September 22. With campuses in Peterborough and Oshawa, Trent and DC have enjoyed a long and co-operative partnership that Dr. Groarke recognized in his installation speech as important to providing post-secondary growth in the area. Providing students opportunities to earn additional credentials following graduation is one way DC’s dedication to the student experience extends beyond convocation. This includes many agreements with Trent, as well as campus partner the University of Ontario Institute of Technology, that exist for DC students to potentially obtain a degree without having to leave the City of Oshawa.
