Community

Last month’s fire hasn’t deterred the community spirit of Dal’s Agricultural Campus, which will once again throw out the welcome mat for its annual Community Day — a 40-year summer tradition featuring barn tours, kids’ activities and so much more. Free bus transportation is available for students, faculty and staff in Halifax.

During Dal’s 200th year, the university’s retirees continue to have an important connection with the university. And this spring, º£½ÇÉçÇøapp welcomed delegates from across the country for the national conference of the College and University Retiree Associations of Canada.

Dozens of students from across Canada arrived at Dal this week to participate in SHAD, an award-winning, month-long enrichment platform for high school students.

Last week, Dal welcomed 45 youth to campus in partnership with United Way Halifax for a day camp full of fun, hands-on activities — from science experiments to shooting hoops.

Dal celebrated dozens of long-service staff and faculty last week as part of its annual milestones certificate ceremony — honouring employees whose valued contributions to the university span decades.
