Northwestern Polytechnic celebrated the school’s Fairview campus’ Class of 2023-24 convocation graduates in the Fred Speckeen Theatre on March 9th.
70 graduates were in attendance and the program included a speech from the 2023-24 Fairview Valedictorian Alex Zinman.
Zinman, a graduate of the Animal Health Technology program, completed their two-year diploma with “academic excellence” and says they were proud to represent their fellow classmates.
According to NWP, Alex first attended Sheridan College for illustration and spent time at the Academy of Realist Art in Toronto, where they studied of master-style drawing and painting, but a part-time job at an outdoor educator farm revealed Alex’s love for animal science.
Alex says they now plan to attend the University of Lethbridge to pursue a Bachelor of Agriculture through NWP’s partnership with U of L which recognizes student’s credentials, and transition into a post-diploma degree program.
NWP President Dr. Vanessa Sheane congratulated the Fairview graduates at the event and called the graduates an “extremely dedicated” and talented group.
