“It goes over their age, when they were killed, what they were studying and when they would’ve graduated.”

According to its website, Unissued Diplomas was created “to remind the world about the ongoing war and the price Ukrainians pay daily in their fight for freedom.”

The exhibition at Western University is on display at Weldon Library and will be available until the end of June.

The diplomas are also available for viewing on the Unissued Diplomas website.
