With COVID-19 restrictions rendering it impossible to host graduation ceremonies, UCT honoured 1 712 graduates from the Faculty of Humanities in a virtual ceremony on Thursday, 15 July 2021, with musical performances and social media elements created to add some fun and excitement. We congratulate the July 2021 graduates on their academic success during an exceptionally challenging year.
