Student Showcase and Academic Panel
The academic panel is a pillar of ENVigorate, bringing together faculty, researchers, and students for a guided discussion on that year's theme. Following the panel is the student showcase, formerly known as the Research Symposium. The Student Showcase is a space where graduate and undergraduate students alike can share and discuss their projects. All work is welcome! All ENV students are welcome to register to present, and all alumni, faculty, and staff (even outside of the faculty) are welcome to attend.

Academic panel: Tuesday March 19th, 10:30 to 11:30, Showcase: Tuesday March 19th, 11:30 to 12:30
SWAP Shop and Fashion Show
Bring in your lightly used books, accessories, clothes, or household goods, and swap them with any item of your choice! This is a great opportunity to do some Spring cleaning, while also promoting sustainable consumption. Following the iconic SWAP shop, is the sustainable fashion show, where student models will show off fully thrifted and upcycled outfits. Stop by to vamp your home and wardrobe, and get some fashion inspo!
