Hansa Dabee, class of 2010
“The best part of my job is the people I work with. They are constantly supportive and encourage me to do more stuff and think outside the box.”
Since I graduated in 2010, I have been working as a Broadcast Assistant at BBC Radio Nottingham.
Graduation Day
The 23rd of January was the first graduation day of 2013 for the University of Lincoln. As part of the LSM’s alumni team, I find it‘s a great opportunity to capture the event. Although I have to admit that I have never attended the January ceremonies at Lincoln Cathedral, until now. Today I was fortunate to see graduation from a different perspective – as a postgraduate student. So, as I warm up now with a glass of mulled wine and raise it to all alumni, I thought I’d post a couple of photos taken by my nearest and dearest.
Cheers!
Taking centre stage was actor John Hurt CBE who received an Honorary Doctorate of Arts. Perhaps you can spot the Head of the LSM Sarah Barrow, and how about anyone else pictured?
