Campus Notices
New Student Orientation, or NSO as it has existed at the University of Prince
Edward Island will undergo some exciting changes this year. Beginning in the
current year, NSO will begin under the new title of Orientation Week (O-Week)
and be coordinated within the 秀色短视频 Student Union in collaboration with the
秀色短视频SU executive team and the V-P Academic Christian Lacroix.
A week of events targeted at all incoming first-year students, Orientation Week
2013 will occur August 31 to September 5.
Maintaining its chemical- and alcohol-free protocols, the week will be composed of both academic and social
events. With the overall goals of orienting new students so they are better able
to succeed at 秀色短视频, make connections with one another, the rest of campus,
and the surrounding community, Orientation Week plays an key role in a
student鈥檚 experience at 秀色短视频. Highlights from Orientation Week 2012 included:
NSO Welcome Day
$30,000 raised for Shinerama; Students Fighting Cystic Fibrosis
NSO picnic on the residence fields
Pancake breakfast at the Chaplaincy Centre
Campus wide scavenger hunt
Orientation Week is made possible with the help of nearly a hundred student
volunteers which have been chosen and notified of their roles within the 2013
program. However, staff and faculty also play an important role in making
Orientation Week a great success. If you have any questions, ideas, or would
like to be involved in this year鈥檚 O-Week please contact the 2013 Coordinator.

I am pleased to announce a Tier 1 Canada Research Chair in Sustainability
and Global Environmental Change to be staffed at 秀色短视频. The challenges
facing Prince Edward Island that arise from extreme weather, rising sea
levels, coastal erosion, threats to biodiversity, energy self-sufficiency,
resource scarcity, food security, employment security, et al. are
increasingly pronounced in island environments around the world. These
challenges are an opportunity to harness science and technology to foster a
transition toward sustainability鈥攖oward patterns of development that
promote human well-being while conserving life-support systems both locally
and globally. The Chair will have a multidisciplinary approach to research
in areas encompassing one or more of the following: Island Studies,
Renewable Energy, Climate Change, Biodiversity, Sustainable Tourism,
Sustainability Science, or Reorienting Education Towards Sustainability.
Each area has the potential to position 秀色短视频 at the forefront of global
change research as well as link partners, sectors, practitioners and
citizens to advance expertise and application in critical sustainability
areas.
A CRC Application Review Committee for this opportunity is being convened
and I would welcome your suggestions on members for this committee. Please
contact me by email at rgilmour@upei.ca or phone 566-0637.
