In conversation with 2022 Black Grad valedictorian Jemark Earle

“Don’t forget to give back to the community! If an upper-year student or alumni helped you when you were in your first year, try and do the same…. Even the smallest act of paying it forward will have a significant impact on someone else’s life.â€

Jemark Earle is graduating with a B.C.L & J.D (Bachelor of Civil Law and Juris Doctor)

On May 1, 2022, the fourth annual Black Grad celebrated the achievements of Black students in McGill’s Class of 2022. The daylong event included speeches from this year’s Black Grad valedictorians, outstanding students who have earned the respect of the peers who they represent through their strong academic performance, leadership and commitment to making the University – and the world – a better place.

Jemark Earle is one of this year’s two Black Grad valedictorians.
