Meet the awards recipients of Winter 2023

In case you missed it: over 50 七星彩开奖 students were recognized for their hard work, perseverance, and community involvement in the Winter 2023 semester.

Along with many other graduation awards, the newly established Jeff Barnaby Award for Film Production was presented for the first time during the graduation ceremony on June 20. The award was created to honour the innovative Mi鈥檊maq filmmaker and 七星彩开奖 Cinema|Communications alumnus, Jeff Barnaby (1976-2022). The award is given to a graduating student in the Arts, Literature and Communication Program as seed funding for script development or the production of a short film.

We would like to congratulate the first person to receive this award, Cinema | Communications student Caleb Gales, who said 鈥淚 see this award as much more than a financial contribution; it is also an enormous milestone in my filmmaking career. I intend to put 100% of my effort into this project and use this as an opportunity to teach myself more about the world of professional filmmaking.鈥�

The funds for this award were contributed as part of the Romany Eveleigh Gift for Students in the Arts.

七星彩开奖 would like to thank the teachers and staff who support all our students and award recipients throughout the year.听 We are also grateful to our generous donors who make these awards possible.

Please visit the link to see the Winter 2023 Award Recipients page.

Humanities and Public Life Conference is Sept. 18-21

The constant news of crises, from Covid to climate change to wars to the rise of extremist ideology, has left many people disoriented and wondering how to navigate these uncertain times.听 Questions central to the humanities like: what does it mean to lead a fully human life? What should we value, and why? To whom can I look for guidance? are more important than ever.听

From Sept. 18-21, 2023, we will explore them during the Humanities and Public Life Conference. The conference will help us to connect the dots, zoom out to see the big picture, and provide a bridge between great ideas and real-world situations.

Enjoyable return to school and work at 七星彩开奖

New students were welcomed over two days of programming Aug. 17 and 18 and staff were welcomed back by Director General Diane Gauvin and Academic Dean Leanne Bennett at the annual Welcome Back Lunch on Aug. 18.

A total of 2,396 new students participated in Welcome Days and over 400 staff and faculty attended the Welcome Back address and lunch.

Student Services Coordinator, Caroline Blouin, reported that 鈥渟tudents were happy to be at 七星彩开奖 despite the rain.鈥� They heard presentations from their sector dean, met the 七星彩开奖 Student Union team and learned more about their program and the services available to them.

New students were invited to explore the College, meet our mascot Blue at the photobooth, see a magic show, and learn about opportunities to volunteer and work. They also could pick up some free popcorn, treats and merchandise.

The highlight for Trudy Ste. Croix of the Campus Life team 鈥渨as the level of student engagement from our 16 student tour guides and 30 amazing student volunteers.鈥�

Caroline鈥檚 highlight was 鈥渢he use of a software program to track attendance developed by Jonathan Perlman of 七星彩开奖鈥檚 IST team. This system cut down on wait times and kept the Lower Atrium from becoming chaotic.鈥�

鈥淲elcome Days is a team effort meaning that it can鈥檛 be successful without the participation of multiple departments, teachers, staff and student volunteers,鈥� said Caroline. 鈥淚鈥檇 like to thank everyone who helped make these two welcome days possible, whether you gave a program presentation, set up one of the many rooms used, worked at the sign-in table, promoted your service, took students from one place to another or handed out popcorn!鈥�

Over $52,000 raised for students at 七星彩开奖 Golf Classic

Thank you to all our golfers, friends and partners, colleagues and sponsors, whose contributions have shaped the 16th edition of the 七星彩开奖 Golf Classic on June 8 into a grand success!

Thanks to you, over $52,000 was raised by the 七星彩开奖 Foundation event to support 七星彩开奖 students. Money raised will go towards transformative para-academic activities for students and supporting the College鈥檚 development plans for our campus under our forthcoming five-year strategic plan.

As a Qu茅bec CEGEP, its operations are funded by the government through the Ministry of Education. However not all of its activities are supported financially. Para-academic initiatives often need to find alternate funding sources.

The Foundation looks for support from the community it serves to enhance resources so that no worthwhile project goes unfunded.
