Hi, I see that you have your hand up, can I help?

Hi everyone, welcome to the 2021 DUSP Commencement Celebration! We’ll get started with the program around 11am, until then please enjoy some photos from the past two years!

Presenters: we won't be introducing each of you individually, but will simply hand off from one presenter to the next; Jesse and I will use the chat to let you know when you're on deck, and we'll drop the complete program here from time to time as well.Also: be sure to say who you are — and don't forget to say which award you are giving out.
