Renison’s Student Experience & Housing team is excited to present a new student events calendar for the entire Renison student community!
What has changed?
In the past, our calendars showcased events only hosted by members of the Student Experience & Housing team. Moving forward, Student Experience & Housing wishes to create a student-focused Renison events calendar that encompasses all events, workshops, and activities hosted by all units within the Renison community that students may attend. The goal is to offer a calendar that highlights all events, workshops, and activities for Renison students in one centralized place.
Do you have an event you wish to promote to Renison students?
We welcome you to submit your activities for November’s events calendar by the last Monday of the month to be included in the following month’s events calendar. For November, all student events should be submitted by Monday, October 24 in order to be included in our November calendar. You can email your event information (name/date/time/location and any poster materials) to Ryan Connell at ryan.connell@uwaterloo.ca .
