A 1947 Grad Story

At Sprott Shaw College, we stand tall with our motto of “learning with purpose since 1903” – and Dorothy Pears, one of our previous students, is a living testament to that statement.

In 1947, Ms. Pears graduated from Sprott Shaw’s Executive Office Administrator Program as a student at the Victoria campus. In 2019, Ms. Pears celebrates a new milestone – her 90^th birthday.

In honour of her 90^th birthday, Ms. Pears was presented with an honorary diploma for her studies at Sprott Shaw. On December 7^th, the diploma was presented to her at her birthday celebration by the current director of the Kamloops campus, Marty Tazelaar.

On behalf of Sprott Shaw College, we’d like to extend a big congratulations and happy birthday to Ms. Pears!
