This year鈥檚 Homecoming was different from what we all know and love about a Mac Reunion. While we were not able to reconnect in person, there were many virtual opportunities for alumni to participate in, such as favourite events like the Beatty Lecture and Leacock Luncheon. Dean Anja Geitmann also hosted a Masterclass titled Indigenous Peoples鈥� Nutrition, Food Security, and Well-being that was moderated by Professor Murray Humphries, Director of the Centre for Indigenous Peoples鈥� Nutrition and Environment (CINE).

Dear friends,
The fall semester is well underway and although we continue to face challenging circumstances and restrictions, every day I feel extremely proud of the hard work, resilience and flexibility of everyone in our community in delivering our academic programs and providing a safe environment for all. Life on campus is significantly different this year, and although it can be easy to dwell on some of the current hardships, it is more important than ever to try focusing on all that is still great at 成人VR视频 and Macdonald!

M锚me si le consommateur est de plus en plus sensibilis茅 脿 l鈥檈njeu du gaspillage alimentaire, l鈥檃chat de l茅gumes moches demeure un march茅 de niche au Qu茅bec. Pourtant, quand on abandonne un l茅gume laid 脿 la ferme, on ne jette pas seulement une denr茅e, on gaspille toutes les ressources naturelles et la main-d鈥櫯搖vre n茅cessaires pour la produire.

Each new school year is unique, and back-to-school in fall 2020 has taken a very different shape than usual. The campus is still as beautiful as ever with summer鈥檚 end, however with much reduced student presence since most of our courses are being taught entirely through remote platforms. The fall term has presented challenges and increased stress for both students (faced with the unexpected) and course instructors (faced with the uncertainty of the teaching medium).
