Academic Procession Protocol for 2024
Please read carefully
The Academic Procession continues to be an important part of the long and dignified tradition of the convocation ceremony at the University of Toronto. It is a visible demonstration of the value that we place on convocation and the celebration of the achievements of ALL of our students. We ask that you remain seated throughout the ceremony, and in particular, that you do not hug or otherwise single out particular students on stage. Such individual attention, accorded to some students but not others, negates the goal of ensuring that the ceremonial experience is the same for all graduates.
The University is a mask-friendly environment, and we respect the choices of our faculty, staff, students and guests.
The protocol outlined above is a requirement for joining the Academic Procession.
