Calgary Herald: University of Alberta limits God’s role in convocation
The University of Alberta has officially changed the school’s convocation ceremony to reduce, but not remove, God’s role in the event.
The school’s General Faculties Council voted Monday for a new convocation charge, which asks graduates to use their degrees “for the uplifting of the whole people; to inspire the human spirit; for all who believe, to serve your God; and to pursue more steadfastly whatsoever things are true.”
