Faculty and staff

Faculty and staff are invited to participate in the academic procession as a member of the Honour Guard. The Honour Guard will form 30-minutes prior to the start of the ceremony outside the fourth-floor doors of The Richard J. CURRIE CENTER.

If you have your own regalia, and plan on participating in the Honour Guard, please notify Jackie Wright at jackie.wright@unb.ca by Wednesday, Oct. 16 so we ensure enough chairs are available at the ceremony.

The piper will lead the Marshals and graduands in a procession up Mackay Drive from the second floor Kinesiology building to The Richard J. CURRIE CENTER. Graduands will be greeted by the Honour Guard and Platform Party at the fourth-floor entrance. The Marshals will lead graduands into the performance hall, followed by the Honour Guard and then the Platform Party.

If you reserve regalia from Gaspard, you may pick it up on Thursday, Oct. 24 from 1 - 3:30 p.m. in the Alberta Alumni Recreation Centre on the first floor of The Richard J. CURRIE CENTER. Please return regalia to the same location immediately after the ceremony.
