Suupie Idlout would normally spend her summer at home in Resolute, Nunavut — the second-most northern community in Canada. Instead, thanks to the Northern Youth Abroad Canadian Program, she got to travel to Halifax for a work placement with Dal's Indigenous Student Centre.

For two decades, Let's Talk Science at Dal has been bringing together university students and school kids to spark imagination, enthusiasm and engagement in the sciences. Today, its future is as bright as ever.

Dal PhD student Landon Getz has launched a new group to boost visibility for 2SLGBTQ+ individuals in science, tech, engineering and math fields the across Atlantic Canada.

During her time as as receptionist and website manager with the School of Occupational Therapy, Michelle Mahoney’s generous spirit inspired students and colleagues alike. Now, they’ve returned the generosity in kind, establishing a special scholarship in her honour.

Summer was in full swing last Thursday for Community Day on Dal’s Agricultural Campus, with sunshine and warm temperatures providing ideal conditions for exploring the Truro campus’s many wonders.
