APRIL 2022

We have plenty of exciting news to tell you. We're looking forward to celebrating our grads in person this year for the first time in two years. A new course is tackling happiness and grad students are bringing sex and gender into brain and mental health research. We're remembering the tremendous impact Sonia Labatt had on the A&S community. Plus, generous support for the Faculty of Arts & Science, a wide range of events and more!
