Watson’s Eatery is excited to announce it is now home to a new food service provider, as St. Paul’s University College has started a partnership with Brown’s Fine Food Services on April 29, 2021, for a three-year term.
For many, starting your first year of university can be an intimidating, overwhelming, but very exciting time in your life. To ease the transition period between high school and university, many Living Learning Communities (LLC) have been created in the residence buildings at UWaterloo.
Various LLCs are housed across the residences on campus to allow students studying in the same Faculty or academic cluster to live near one another. St. Paul’s is home to the Faculty of Engineering LLC, Financial Analysis and Risk Management LLC and Women in Engineering LLC.
We caught up with some former students from the Women in Engineering LLC to learn what their experience living at the College with their classmates looked like.
Due to COVID-19, living on campus looked a little different this past year, but St. Paul's dons took on the challenge of managing frequent changes in public health guidelines to ensure students still got as much of a real university experience as possible.
Last month, Bell Let’s Talk announced that funding of more than $3 million in grants would be allocated to 123 colleges and universities across Canada. As part of this funding, St. Paul’s has been awarded $25,000 to invest in necessary resources to develop a mental health and well-being strategy for our campus community in line with the newly launched National Standard of Canada for Mental Health and Well-Being for Post-Secondary Students.
Given the growing impact of climate change, building environmentally sustainable products and services has become more important than ever before. So, it comes as no surprise that GreenHouse (GH) students continue to build ventures with a sustainability focus. Whether it’s a product or service to help you consume more sustainably, or an idea to support existing businesses transition into a more sustainable business model.
On March 30, several GreenHouse innovation teams came together to pitch their latest ventures to a panel of judges from across the St.Paul’s community during its latest Social Impact Showcase.
Cassie Myers (BA ’18), an alumnus of the GreenHouse social impact incubator at St. Paul’s University College and Conrad Grebel University College at the University of Waterloo, has been recognized as one of 50 Changemakers in The Globe and Mail’s Report on Business magazine for 2021.
This Valentine’s Day, we took the time to reconnect with St. Paul’s alumni couple, Lisa Sansom (BA’92) and James Fraser (BSc '94) to see what they have been up to since they met back in the spring term of 1989.
A message from our Chancellor Michaëlle Jean about Black History Month.
In response to a global health emergency unlike anything we’ve seen in our lifetimes, a small group of friends including St. Paul’s alumnus Laurie Dillon-Schalk (BA ’92) formed a complex grassroots organization and logistics chain practically overnight. That organization Conquer COVID-19 gained national and international media recognition for helping to save countless lives and inspiring hope and optimism for thousands of Canadians right across the country. We recently caught up with Laurie Dillon-Schalk to learn more.
