November wrap up: Student Life

While it started to snow and the seasons truly began to change, the livelihood of St. Paul’s Student Life stayed the same. Over the month of November, there were countless opportunities for LLC students to gather with their peers and take a little time away from studying!

While wandering on campus, you may notice that there are numerous red and orange ribbons tied to the bridge crossing Laurel Creek from Environment 3 to St. Paul’s. In 2016, the Waterloo Indigenous Student Centre began tying red ribbons to the bridge to honour and provide a gentle reminder of the lives of 4000+ missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls and two-spirit people, as a part of 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence.

On Wednesday, November 10th the St. Paul’s Booster Club went out to support the Waterloo Warriors Women’s Basketball team as they played their home opener for the 2021/2022 season. Facing off against the Windsor Lancers, the game held tight but ended with success for the Warriors! With a final score of 64-61, the Warriors won their first game on their home court this year and against the Lancers for the first time in over 10 years.

Going into the 2021/2022 school year, St. Paul’s welcomed a full residence. With the exciting news of a full residence, St. Paul’s also brought in 14 Dons and 16 Peer Leaders. Residence Dons are immersed in student floors, available to support their students, plan socials and create a welcoming and inclusive environment for all. This year has been no exception; there have been events happening in St.
