Message from the Chancellor
CONGRATULATIONS AND WELCOME TO THE CONCORDIA ALUMNI FAMILY!
Graduation marks the culmination of years of hard work, dedication and perseverance. Despite the many challenges and continuous curveballs life threw at you these past two years — you did it!
Your experiences during the pandemic will stay with you for the rest of your lives. The social and scholastic challenges you faced and overcame have made you stronger, more adaptable and resilient. It’s a story you will tell the next generations and one that will serve you well throughout your careers.
Remember that success in the future will require adaptability and a willingness to change. Our world is facing some of the most difficult challenges in human history and we will need our best and brightest minds to tackle them.
You now join a global alumni network of more than 240,000 Concordia graduates. Take advantage of this community of potential mentors, advocates, business partners and employers. Leverage this network, engage with others and stay connected.
As a fellow graduate, I cannot wait to see all the great things you achieve. I wish you all good luck, good health and good fortune.

Message from the President
At long last, the Concordia community is proud to gather in celebration of your graduation. I’m overjoyed to offer hearty congratulations to all our graduates who successfully completed their programs under the exceptional circumstances we’ve all experienced. The pandemic has been massively disruptive to the world of education and you should feel especially proud of your accomplishments as our community is proud of you.
I want to express my gratitude to Concordia’s faculty and staff for their tireless commitment to deliver the university’s academic mission despite daunting challenges. Without their dedication, and the steadfast support of family members and friends, your success would not have been possible.
With the next phases of your personal and professional journeys underway, the world is gripped by terrible challenges: the outrage of war in Ukraine, deep and often tragic social inequities at home and abroad, the increasing urgency of climate change, economic uncertainty and the traumatic consequences of a lingering global health crisis.
Countless Concordia alumni have made their mark by working to improve the well-being of society and our planet. Concordia’s graduates are our best ambassadors. I take comfort knowing that you will likewise devote your talent, humanity and creative thinking to tackle the grand challenges of our time.
I wish you all success and happiness for the years to come and hope that you will stay in touch.
Graham Carr
President and Vice-Chancellor
