Congratulations are in order for one of Oxford University’s most famous graduates: Malala Yousafzai!
Although she completed her degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics back in 2020, the 24-year-old activist, who seven years ago became the youngest Nobel Prize laureate, got to finally put on her ceremonial robes and walk across the stage at one of the English university’s recent graduation ceremonies.
The event was initially set for May 2020 but was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. As a result, the prestigious university didn’t resume graduation ceremonies until September 2021, per its website.
Malala shared a Friday photoset via Instagram. It featured Malala twirling with friends in black and her white robes while smiling and posing before iconic Oxford University landmarks such as the Bridge of Soighs.
Malala also received adorable kisses on her cheeks by her parents in other photos Ziauddin Yousafzai and Toor Pekai Yousafzai, and one with her new husband Asser Malik.
