Alumni Teacher Brunch and Distinguished Alumni Service Award Presentation 

The COVID pandemic has had an incredible impact on education. Teachers have responded admirably to many challenges.

Please join us for a tribute to the arrangers of big band jazz presented by the University of Waterloo Jazz Ensemble. Directed by Michael Wood, the Jazz Ensemble has been a crowd favourite for many years.  Special guest saxophonist and UW alumni Ernie Kalwa will also join the band.

Resistance Strategies: Equipping Ourselves and Our Communities for Long Term Justice Work

The work of building a more just world includes acknowledging the world that is, and that was. This knowledge can be overwhelming, especially for people with marginalized identities. This talk will reflect on strategies from past and current movements, as well as how my own teaching has changed.

In the last two years, instructions to "shelter in place" became familiar around the globe as part of the response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This lecture considers what it means to shelter in place, not just in terms of emergency management, but as a deliberate practice with ethical and ecological effects. What do poets, walkers, and weather observers teach us about the value of dwelling in place? What does shelter look like for those who are forced to leave their homes? And when prevented from staying in place, how can a person dwell? Is it possible to shelter in time?

Community suppers are back! And we'd like you to (virtually) come on Wednesday November 24 at 5:45 to have a peak at the new dining room, hear announcements and see a presentation by Grebel Alum Eric Kennedy (BKI 2012) on his research on forest fires.
