👻 Things we’re ghosting this Semester...

Skipping class, last-minute assignments, ignoring College emails and surviving on caffeine alone. 💀☕

Some habits are better left in the past.

What bad college habit are YOU ghosting this semester? 👀👇

Wait? The Library has all that? 👀📚

Whether you need a quiet place to study, space to work with your group, a calculator you forgot at home, or somewhere to print and scan — the Library has you covered.

You can also explore the fiction, Pride and Negahneewin collections, submit a 3D print and borrow equipment like cords, adapters and more.

Basically… you should check out the Library. 👏

Today, our Confederation College community gathered for a flag raising in recognition of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day. 🧡

Throughout September, students and employees have also taken part in activities and opportunities to learn, reflect and honour Residential School Survivors, their families and communities, and remember the children who never returned home.

As we share moments from today and throughout the month, we recognize that Truth and Reconciliation extends beyond one day. We all have a role in continuing to listen, learn and move forward together.
