Whether you’re heading home, staying on campus, or navigating the break on your own, this time of year can feel overwhelming. Here for the Holidays is a supportive, conversation-led campaign reminding every student that they’re not alone.

Final exams are officially behind us, and students can now take a well-deserved break. We hope this time offers a chance to rest, recharge, and enjoy the holidays after a busy semester.

On September 30, our flags will be lowered to half-mast and the campuses will be closed to mark the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. This day provides an important opportunity to reflect on the history and ongoing impacts of residential schools. We celebrate this day to honour the children who never returned, the survivors, the families and communities who continue to grieve. Wearing orange today is a small way to help spread awareness and take part in the journey of reconciliation. 🧡

Keep an eye out for Felix, our beloved campus cat! He’s always around to brighten your day with a friendly hello (or a casual nap in the sun). Be sure to give him some love if you spot him! Make sure not to feed him, as he’s on a special diet to keep him healthy.
