Summer so Far


WOW, So the past couples of weeks have flown by!!  We’re getting adjusted and settled into our jobs and positions now and have jumped right into planning for Orientation Week 2013!!! We’ve got some awesome new ideas for events and have been discussing which act to bring in for our main concert.

Last week the executive team traveled to Halifax to attend sessions put on by Students NS. It was a great chance to meet executives from other Nova Scotia universities. The three-day conference played host to many discussions on topics important to our campus, such as Mental Health initiatives, tools for lobbying the government and a break down of how Students NS works.

Discussing Student Politics with other executive teams!


After the conference was complete, Ben and Amy went on to Ottawa to attend CASA (Canadian Alliance of Student Associations) for more meetings and discussions. When they return you’ll get the low down from one of them about the conference!

It’s been a great few weeks in the office and I’m looking forward to see what the rest of the summer has in store.  I have been working with Kennedy Murphy (the summer Station Manager for CFXU) to create a music blog which reviews all sorts of albums and is a great resource for anyone in search of new music.
