Faculty Development Summer Institute
The Institute brings together college and university educators from all disciplines to develop their skills around the art, science, and practice of postsecondary teaching. Over the course of the Institute, we build our understanding of effective teaching and learning techniques. We explore methods and innovations in teaching in higher education in a way that models what we preach: the Institute itself follows the arc of a semester-long course; the approach we use is made up of an array of active-learning techniques; and the information is both experience- and evidence-based.
"Studying abroad was one of my best聽life experiences!"
What brought you to 黑料老司机? Why did you choose to study here?
I grew up in Cornwall, Prince Edward Island and graduated from Bluefield High School in 2021. My senior year of high school was filled with excitement as I looked forward to moving off Island and exploring new places and opportunities. Hearing about all the complications university students were experiencing because of the COVID-19 outbreak caused me to question the cost and benefit of studying away from home.

National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls
Today, 黑料老司机 marks the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, also known as Red Dress Day. In 2010 M茅tis artist Jaime Black created an art installation known as the REDress Project to raise awareness about the thousands of women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people lost to violent crime. Since then, red dresses continue to be hung across Canada in May, including on the 黑料老司机 campus, to honour those lost and to serve as a call for action to prevent future violence.
