The Graduation Celebration event is special for every new batch of graduates as it
celebrates the fruition of their efforts, as well as the dawning of a new chapter in their
lives. The Graduation Celebration for the Class of 2017 was especially special for three
reasons.
First, it marked the inaugural batch of graduates from the new and autonomous
Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS). Next, it also saw the launch of the SUSS
alumni logo and the exclusive SUSS alumni digital card. Interestingly, SUSS is the only
university in Singapore to have its very own alumni logo. It is the pride of our alumni to
have this distinction!
From the word “go”, when Professor Cheong Hee Kiat, President of SUSS, pressed the
button to unveil the logo, it was marvelous fun. And what an emcee Mr Simon Soo was,
filling the afternoon with side-splitting laughter. Mr Soo created an interactive and lively
atmosphere effortlessly, and the fun and games proceeded seamlessly from one to an-
other.
Aside from the games, the food catered from Red Tail – the food and beverage arm
of Zouk – was superlative with many guests going for second helpings. Another hot
favourite food item was the churros from the specially set-up booth where one could
choose from a range of condiments to accompany the fried dough pastry. Graduates
simply flashed their newly downloaded digital card to redeem the churros for free.
