TO 4TH/5TH YEAR ENGG STUDENTS

 

 

***************************************

Dear Graduating Students,

 

We are officially 4 days away from getting our Iron Rings, and as Saturday
approaches many people are still wondering, what exactly is going on
Saturday, March 13th?

 

So here's what you need to know:

 

8:15am-12pm - APEGGA Workshops (Telus Convention Center - Exhibition Hall,
North Building Upper Level).  A more detailed schedule is provided in the
package given to you when you registered for the Iron Ring at the Undergrad
Office, also remember to bring your filled out application (also in the

package).

 

12pm-1pm - Free Lunch provided by APEGGA for all who attended the workshops
(Telus Convention Center)

 

1:30pm - IRON RING CEREMONY (Telus Convention Center)

 

2:30pm - Right after the Ceremony a photographer will be taking group
pictures of the Departments (an announcement will be made at the ceremony)

 

 

After Group Photos up to 5:30pm - Free Time. This is your time to go home
and change if you're wearing something different for the Banquet! or just do
whatever you want..

 

5:30-6:30pm - Cocktails: Cash Bar (Telus Convention Center - Macleod Hall,
South Building Lower Level)

 

6:00pm -  Doors open for the Banquet (Telus Convention Center - Macleod
Hall)

 

6:30pm-9:30pm - 2009 Graduation Banquet (Telus Convention Center - Macleod
Hall)

 

9:30pm onwards - After grad at the Whiskey

 

 

Here are answers to some other FAQs:

 

*What do parents go to?*

 

Parents can go to the Iron Ring Ceremony at 1:30pm (no ticket required) and
the Banquet at 5:30pm (given you got tickets for them). The workshops in

the morning are for students only. Also be advised that if your parents are
late for the Iron Ring Ceremony they will not be let into the room.

Once they close the doors they won't open them until the ceremony is over so
BE THERE EARLY!

 

*What's happening with after grad tickets?*

 

You get one free aftergrad ticket to The Whiskey for each banquet ticket you
bought, you can redeem these by showing your banquet tickets at The

Whiskey. They're good for no line no cover until 11pm and include one free
drink.

 

For those of you who are not attending the banquet but would like to go to
the aftergrad party at the Whiskey, after grad tickets will be sold in ESS

beginning March 10. These aftergrad tickets are not just exclusive to
graduating engineering students, so feel free to tell your friends.

 

 

Hope that clears up any confusion and that you all know now where to go!

 

On behalf of the Grad Banquet Committee we want to extend our
congratulations to everyone for making it all the way here, we hope you

enjoy the Banquet and remember to please don't drink and drive.

 

Happy Graduation!
