Dear Students, 

 

I hope this email finds you well and ready for another exciting year at the College of Nursing! As the Senior Stick of the Nursing Students' Association, I am thrilled to welcome you all back to school and kick off the academic year with some important announcements. 

 

Orange Shirt Day - September 29th, 8:30 AM - 3:00 PM 

As we return to campus, let us not forget the significance of Orange Shirt Day, which will be observed on September 29th. This day provides an opportunity for us to reflect on the history and legacy of the residential school system in Canada and show our support for survivors and their families. We encourage all nursing students to participate by wearing orange on this day. 

 

Code Red Nursing Social at Obsidian- September 16th, 10:00 PM - 2:00 AM

Our kickoff back to school social is just around the corner on September 16th. We are completely sold out of early bird tickets and the rest are selling out fast! One free drink for those who come before 11:00PM! This will be a fantastic event where you can socialize with fellow students, make new friends, and create lasting memories. Don't forget to purchase your tickets on Eventbrite using the following link: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/code-red-nursing-social-tickets-699072583917?aff=oddtdtcreator.
