Alec's Convocation

Convocation (noun) - 1. calling together
2. large formal meeting

Why this is a convocation and not a graduation, I couldn't tell you. We were nevertheless pleased to attend this occasion yesterday. Here is Alec receiving his diploma from Dr. Tony Tilly, President of Sir Sandford Fleming College (Peterborough).


Outside after the ceremony.


With his proud parents. Can you tell he hates hugging? I was pleased to get a good picture of Kevin and Alec. You rarely get anything other than a mug shot from either of them.



The Men in Black, Cyberspace defenders. Of the 72 who started the CSI program (Computer Security and Investigations) 3 years ago, only 24 graduated. We are proud of Alec and his friends. Why do I feel like listening to the Arrogant Worms "The guy with computer know-how" now?

This was however a bittersweet day. Caitlin graduated last year and went out to Jasper for 6 months very shortly thereafter. So none of us attended her graduation ceremony or got to see her recieve the Equine Spirit Award.

So what plans does Alec have now? Are he and the rest of the guys in the group going to start a google-like company and support you and Kevin in a luxurious lifestyle?
