Last Friday, Lund University celebrated one of its most important academic traditions – the doctoral conferment ceremony 🌿🎩✨
This photo was taken during the pre-ceremony mingle, just before the procession to the Cathedral. It features three of the Faculty of Science’s jubilee doctors: Erik Nyholm, Christian Otto and Petter Minnhagen. Jubilee doctors are those who were originally conferred 50 years ago and are honoured again at the ceremony.
What makes this moment extra special is that Erik Nyholm is holding a photograph from their original conferment exactly fifty years ago – showing the same trio together then, as now 💚
