The University Of Western Cape (UWC) held its first
graduation for the year - unprecedented and unconventional.
Due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), the
institution had a virtual graduation on Tuesday.
Myriads of graduates turned to YouTube as the
university celebrated the students through technology. UWC hosted a 30-minute event
that kicked off at 10 a.m.
On their YouTube page, UWC said: ‘’students
look forward to this day when they can share their achievement with loved ones
and receive their certificates proudly.”
The university says it hopes to hold a physical
ceremony for graduates who may wish to attend. UWC is celebrating 60 years of
existence this year.
Meanwhile, other universities such as the
University of Cape Town and Stellenbosch University, have suspended or
cancelled ceremonies.
