Virtual graduation in Second Life will take place: 11am (GMT), Thursday 24 November at Venue @Vue: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Vue/209/35/28/

All are welcome!

The virtual graduation event will be an opportunity to watch the ceremony together live in Second Life, to support all avatar graduands and to celebrate the graduation with other students and some of the programme team.

If you would like to attend then please do let Fiona Littleton (fiona.littleton@ed.ac.uk) know. Please include your avatar name in the email confirmation as well.

Please do prepare in advance. A new release of Second Life may need to be downloaded. Quick time needs to be up to date. And you may want time to choose your graduation outfit as well! Contact Fiona if you need advice on outfits or if you need Lindens!

  1. Fab, Fiona – sign me up! I love virtual graduation – all the pomp and circumstance but better costumes 🙂 I wonder if we’ll get fireworks again this time?

  2. Can you please tell me how to watch my son-in-law’s graduation on your webcast? It will be on November 24th, at 11 a.m. He will be receiving his Master of Theology. His name is Matthew Hoskin.

  3. Hello Janet – our programme (the MSc in E-learning) is holding an event in the virtual world called “Second Life”, where we will watch the live video and also celebrate our students who are graduating ‘virtually’ rather than in Edinburgh.

    However, there is live video of the graduation ceremony available from the University of Edinburgh web site – I’m not sure exactly what the web address will be (Fiona, do you happen to know?), but I would guess it will be accessible from http://www.ed.ac.uk/schools-departments/registry/graduations

    Hope this helps, and congratulations to your son in law!
