More than 70 years after graduating, members of the Class of 1953 gathered to reconnect and reminisce about their time as students at the Western Ontario Agricultural School, now Ridgetown Campus. 🌾🎓
The gathering brought classmates together to share memories, reflect on their experiences, and celebrate a lifetime of connections. We were honoured that one of our staff members was invited to join them and represent Ridgetown Campus for this special occasion.
