That's the challenge facing the organizers of Concordia's five convocation ceremonies June 11 and 12 at the cavernous Molson Centre in downtown Montreal, and they always deliver. Added to their workload this year is a new format for the 3,543 diplomas that will be handed out to proud graduates. Formerly, the diploma listed the degree and the recipient's name. A gold seal was affixed for Faculty distinctions, i.e., "with great distinction" (a grade point average of 4.00 - 4.30) or "with distinction" (a grade point average of 3.40 - 3.99). This year, at the request of the academic departments, the new diplomas will specify the program. This makes it easier for another university, for example, to see what course of study the graduate took.
