Congratulations to our final-year students from the Department of English Language & Linguistics, who graduated today with their well-earned degrees. This is the culmination of three or four years of hard work (or longer for part-time students).
A pre-graduation party was held on campus today, complete with a prize-giving ceremony for those who have made a particular contribution to the school. The English Language & Linguistics prizes included:
- Vilde Reksnes won Best Degree in English Language & Linguistics. Vilde also jointly won the Humanities Rotary Prize for excellence in the subject.
- Georgia-Ann Carter won Best English Language & Linguistics Dissertation.
- Lizzy Aumonier won Most Significant Contribution to English Language & Linguistics.
- Additionally, Malika White won the SECL Employability Prize for her work experience at Canterbury Cathedral Lodge, volunteering work at Canterbury Food Bank, as well as contribution of articles for InQuire
Following the pre-graduation party, our graduates were awarded their degrees at a ceremony held in Canterbury Cathedral.
