At the School of Physical and Occupational Therapy (SPOT), spring is a time to celebrate SPOT graduates and give kudos to those who have distinguished themselves. SPOT offers students awards, prizes, and fellowships at various points of their studies in the eight programs to honour academic excellence and exceptional achievements. The awards are presented each year at the School's Strawberries & Champagne Reception on the day of Spring Convocation. Find a photo gallery from the reception here.
