Hello Riddell Faculty,

If I haven't already had the chance to speak with you, I want to wish you a Happy New Year!

This email is a formal request for content to be submitted for the upcoming Winter 2026 Newsletter. You may use the attached form if you like, or you can send me an email and/or message on Teams if that's easier. I would also be happy to receive any unique photos from the field or lab, or anything you've found interesting in the last few months!

The deadline to submit content is February 6th, 2026. If you have something coming up that you want to include that comes after this date, let me know and we may be able to work something out.

Thanks, and have a great weekend!

The University of Manitoba campuses and research spaces are located on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Ininiwak, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate, Dene and Inuit, and on the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. UM recognizes that the Treaties signed on these lands are a lifelong, enduring relationship, and we are dedicated to upholding their spirit and intent. We acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past and the present. With this understanding, we commit to supporting Indigenous excellence through active Reconciliation, meaningful change, and the creation of an environment where everyone can thrive. Our collaboration with Indigenous communities is grounded in respect and reciprocity and this guides how we move forward as an institution.
