Destination Graduation - 50th Anniversary Kick-Off

Date: September 14, 2016

Destination Graduation for new first year students in Kinesiology and Health Science was a tremendous success!

More than 880 new Kinesiology and Health Science students attended this event and more than 60 volunteers including Kinesiology and Health Science students, graduate students, full-time/contract faculty members, practicum instructors, alumni and staff participated in the execution of an outstanding event.

This event, designed to set all entering students on the path to academic success, launched the KHS50th anniversary year and included a number of small group ice-breakers and a massive birthday cake, with all participants receiving a branded KHS50th water bottle (courtesy of Sport York) and other prizes.
