UBC will honour 76 Japanese Canadian students whose university experience was disrupted in 1942 when they were forced to leave the B.C. coast. In a special ceremony, UBC will award honorary degrees to the students who were unable to complete their education in 1942, and will re-confer degrees on the students who completed their studies but may have missed their graduation ceremony.
Date: May 30
Time: 4 p.m.
Place: Chan Centre for the Performing Arts, 6265 Crescent Road
