Update for graduate students

Our spring term is now well underway and today we are sharing communications to our university community as we look forward to beginning a transition back to more in person experiences for all of us. 

The growing distribution of vaccines across Canada is giving us reason for new hope. It is with that sense of hope that we are planning to deliver significantly more in-person learning, teaching assistantships, and research in the fall 2021 term. We are optimistic that in-person activities can happen safely and with a renewed sense of community through a staged and strategic return to campus.
