“The primary importance is to put money in students’ hands when they most need it, when they’re taking post-secondary programming, but it’s also a great opportunity for our students to interact with our business community that contributes to the college,” Laliberte said.

MLA Herb Cox, North Battleford councillor Kevin Steinborn and Battleford councillor Judy Pruden attended the event along with other dignitaries.

Cox addressed the crowd to congratulate students on the hard work they put into their education.

“It’s certainly a great moment for you and a great moment for your families and indeed for this entire community,” he said. “I’d also like to commend you for choosing to study and to stay here in the province and I certainly suggest to you that whatever path you choose to follow in the future, I encourage you to stay right here in Saskatchewan. This is certainly a great place to work, to live and to raise your families.”
