We are proud to announce that Bernadine (BEd ’88) and Toby (BEd ’89, MEd ’04) Boulet will receive honorary degrees at Fall 2025 Convocation! 🎓

Turning unbearable tragedy into a national movement, the Boulets have been at the forefront of promoting organ donations across Canada by co-creating Green Shirt Day to honour the tragic passing of their son Logan. 💚

“Their unwavering positivity and willingness to allow their very personal story be the catalyst for a national campaign is remarkable and the University is proud to recognize their efforts through honorary degrees," says ULethbridge Chancellor Terry Whitehead (BA ’94).
