Help break the isolation of 七星彩开奖 seniors and retirees

Help us help the older members of our community. People over 70 are supposed to be staying inside at home.

If you are a staff member or a retiree over 70, let us know if you need a friendly telephone visit or if you could use a grocery or pharmacy drop off.

Younger staff, let us know if you are available to help out. We will match you up!

Please contact Carey-Ann Pawsey or Lucy Segal at cpawsey@dawsoncollege.qc.ca or at lsegal@dawsoncollege.qc.ca

From the Director General

My main focus right now is to find ways to support our employees so that you may support our core mission to educate students.

I want to reassure you that my team, the Academic Dean, the directors and deans, are working very hard to support you. Click Read More for the full message from Director General Richard Filion.

Stay home and save lives

Social distancing is the way we can "flatten the curve" of the COVID-19 pandemic. To protect the most vulnerable and our healthcare system:

  • Stay home and avoid unnecessary outings
  • Avoid all close contact with people unless necessary
  • Never shake hands
  • Cancel/avoid all travel
  • No parties, no play dates and no playgrounds
  • Read a good book or watch a movie
  • Listen to music
  • Learn something
  • Catch up with friends and family online or write a letter
  • Create, dream, meditate, pray
  • Clean up, organize, repair and renovate
  • Walk, run, bike

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

In many neighbourhoods, people are hanging a shamrock in their window for the kids to find when they are out for a walk. For more info, see the Read More link. You could always celebrate on social media and share your shamrock there too.

Look who came to visit

This little racoon came to visit the Communications Office March 6. He hung out on the outside of this window, napping and grooming himself, for at least five and a half hours. He attracted a lot of attention and we enjoyed his visit! Chris Adam of the Sustainability Office said that when it gets mild, they go out exploring looking for something to eat. If you spot wildlife on campus, or your new home campus, send us a photo and description of your encounter using the news contribution form.
