Acclaimed filmmaker Deepa Mehta is one of more than 4,400 extraordinary women and men – gold medal athletes, novelists and global researchers - receiving degrees from the University of Toronto this fall.
Mehta, who receives a Nov. 7 Doctor of Laws, honoris causa, in recognition of her leadership in the arts and her work as a director, producer and screenwriter, studied philosophy as an undergraduate. Higher education “broadens your horizon, helps you explore different areas of your potential interests, and buys you time to get to know yourself,” she said.
Mehta’s notion of taking the time to explore your interests resonates with many students who opted for fall convocation in order to seize opportunities to study abroad, take part in groundbreaking research, or combine challenging academics with exciting extra-curricular opportunities.
Undergraduate Opportunities
For Andi Wilson, 22, the road to fall convocation began with a 2009 summer exchange trip to China with Professor Joseph Wong, director of the Asia Institute at the Munk School of Global Affairs.
That experience sparked Wilson’s decision to enroll in a demanding fourth-year senior thesis class, postponing her convocation until fall.
