Lady Sophie Laws,
Head of School, presided, welcoming everyone to the ceremony and
expressing the pride and delight of the teaching faculty in the
graduands’ success. The commencement speaker was Dr Judith Ackroyd,
recently-appointed Dean of the
Faculty of Humanitiers, Arts and Social Sciences of Regent's

celebration. Degrees were conferred by David Parrish, Webster
Resident Director, and the Webster Univesity Alumni

visiting faculty member from the St Louis campus. The award was
given to Veronica Andrade to mark both her academic achievement as
a double major and her service to the College.
Faculty and new graduates left the ceremony,
attracting the attention of passing tourist buses, and walked
through Regent’s Park to a Reception in the College gardens.
Academic robes added extra colour to the Spring greenery on a
gloriously sunny and most memorable day.
