On March 20, 22 and 23, Durham College’s (DC) spring and fall 2018 graduating students learned everything they need to know about convocation during Countdown to Grad. Held at the Oshawa and Whitby campuses and Pickering Learning Site, the annual event gave students who attended the opportunity to learn about alumni benefits, career development services and convocation details, while also enjoying a free slice of pizza and receiving a gift from event sponsor, the Alumni Association.
