Community Events

Brian Dobie speaking at the Marjoire Ward Lecture

Marjorie Ward Lecture

The Marjorie Ward Lecture is an annual public lecture that invites distinguished Canadian speakers to present on topics of broad cultural, academic or social relevance with a traditional focus on Canada, and in particular, Western Canada. Established in 1980, the lecture was named after Marjorie Ward, the College's long-serving Registrar who dedicated nearly three decades of service before retiring.

St John's College Convocation

Held each fall, the St John's College Convocation honours the academic achievements, scholarship recipients, and community contributions of our graduating members, alumni and award winners. It is one of the College's most cherished traditions, bringing together students, families, Fellows, staff, and community supporters for a day of celebration.
