Annual graduation celebration all about “good news”

The Department of Journalism celebrated all its 2024 graduates in style after the official ceremony on Monday 24 March.

Guest speaker Paul Herman, Good News editor of News24, inspired attendees with some recent stories about South Africans doing amazing things in supporting each other towards success and achievements.

The event served as recognition of all students – on doctoral, master’s and honours level. Prizes were also awarded to the top-performing BAHons Journalisms students.

This event is a highlight on the department’s annual calendar to bring our alumni back “home” and to share a moment in the limelight with their loved ones.

We offer a big thanks to Mrs Elizabeth Newman and Noxolo Mbazini who helped with the arrangements to make the night special to all. Thanks also to alumna Karla de Bod for taking the photos.
