After a month in the care of the Atlantic Veterinary College鈥檚 Wildlife Service, a juvenile bald eagle was released on August 5, near Bangor, PEI.

On July 9, Jason MacEachern and Luke Peters found the eagle on the ground while they were fishing in the Bangor area. The bird was not able to fly because of an injured wing. Jason and Luke took the eagle to AVC where several radiographs were taken to rule out possible fractures. The cause of the bird鈥檚 injury is not known, but it was not able to hunt and was thin. At AVC, the eagle gradually moved to the large flight cage where it practiced flying again and gained weight.

Thanks to the quick action of Jason and Luke and the expert care it received at AVC, the eagle thrived and was released close to the area where it was found. Releasing it were Jason and Luke; fourth-year veterinary student Krista Simonson who admitted the bird to AVC; and wildlife technician Fiep de Bie, AVC Wildlife Service.

Consistently ranked as one of Canada鈥檚 top ten primarily undergraduate universities and home to talented educators and researchers, 秀色短视频 offers a wide range of programs in four faculties (arts, education, science, and veterinary medicine) and two schools (business and nursing) to approximately 4,400 undergraduate and graduate students from more than 60 countries. 秀色短视频 takes pride in and is focused on preparing our students to successfully contribute to a rapidly changing world.

秀色短视频 students took their island tourism course to its logical, practical end by mingling with tourists from the cruise ship MS Veendam when it docked earlier this month in Charlottetown.

Students had previously visited the arrivals lounge in the Charlottetown Airport to examine how the airport space contours the expectations of tourists who have just arrived by plane to the Island. Students looked at how three different tourist segments鈥攑otential business investors, the food- and culture-driven, and those visiting friends and relatives鈥攔esponded to different verbal and visual advertising initiatives. Visiting the cruise ship terminal in downtown Charlottetown allowed students to compare this space that is similarly yet differently welcoming to the airport terminal.

The Island Tourism course is offered jointly by the Island Studies Program and the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at 秀色短视频. The course is taught by Dr. Godfrey Baldacchino, UNESCO co-Chair in Island Studies and Sustainability.

To this end, 秀色短视频 is introducing a new fundraising initiative called Panthers for Change, which will help incoming students feel more connected by exposing them to more of the Island community.

Throughout the four days of NSO, students will raise money for four local charities鈥攖he PEI Humane Society, the Alzheimer鈥檚 Society of PEI, the Canadian Mental Health Association, and PEI Family Violence Prevention Services. They will also be meeting representatives from each group and learning about the local initiatives these charitable organizations have underway. This will culminate in a full day of fundraising throughout Charlottetown on Tuesday, September 6.

鈥淯ltimately it came down to what the purpose for new student orientation is鈥攁n opportunity for our students to build healthy connections and to develop those connections on campus and in the larger community,鈥� said NSO co-ordinator Tayte Willows. 鈥淲e wanted to provide them with the chance to connect with groups working here on PEI, and doing work that they can stay connected to throughout the rest of their time in university.鈥�

To further the connection, each of the groups has committed to keeping students informed of volunteer opportunities throughout the year. This will encourage students to continue to share their talents and passions in ways that improve our Island community. It will by extension help to develop in our students a healthy connection to the community and the people they are serving.

While a number of books and articles have been written about Jewish Communist organizations and their supporters in particular countries, an academic treatment of the overall movement has yet to be published. A Vanished Ideology, a collection of essays co-edited by 秀色短视频鈥檚 Dr. Henry Srebrnik, examines the politics of the Jewish communist movement in Australia, Canada, Great Britain, South Africa, and the United States. Dr. Srebrnik is a professor of political science at 秀色短视频.

鈥淥n behalf of the Faculty of Arts, I wish to congratulate Dr. Srebrnik, a prominent member of the Political Science department, on the publication of this book that I am certain will have a significant scholarly impact鈥� said Dr. Nebojsa Kujundzic, dean of the Faculty of Arts at 秀色短视频.

Though officially part of the larger world communist movement, the Jewish movement developed its own specific ideology, which was infused as much by Jewish sources as it was inspired by the Bolshevik revolution. The Yiddish language groups, especially, were interconnected through international movements such as the World Jewish Cultural Union. Jewish communists were able to communicate, disseminate information, and debate issues such as Jewish nationality and statehood independently of other communists, and Jewish communism remained a significant force in Jewish life until the mid-1950s.

Making extensive use of Yiddish-language books, newspapers, periodicals, pamphlets, and other materials, the anthology analyzes the relative political strengths and weaknesses of this largely Yiddish-speaking, immigrant movement and its various pro-Soviet organizations in Australia, Canada, Great Britain, South Africa, and the United States.

The Yiddish language groups, especially, were interconnected through international movements such as the World Jewish Cultural Union. Jewish communists were able to communicate, disseminate information, and debate issues such as Jewish nationality and statehood independently of other communists, and Jewish communism remained a significant force in Jewish life until the mid-1950s. Written by scholars in each of the five countries, the articles in A Vanished Ideology place the movement within its historical context in the Jewish world of the twentieth century.

Along with many scholarly articles, Dr. Srebrnik has written three other books on the subject of Jewish communities and communist movements: London Jews and British Communism, 1935-1945 (1995); Jerusalem on the Amur: Birobidzhan and the Canadian Jewish Communist Movement, 1924-1951(2008); and Dreams of Nationhood: American Jewish Communists and the Soviet Birobidzhan Project, 1924-1951 (2010).

His book Creating the Chupah: The Zionist Movement and the Drive for Jewish Communal Unity in Canada, 1898-1921 was published in 2011. He also co-edited De Facto States: The Quest for Sovereignty (2004). He has written about pedagogical matters and the changes taking place in teaching and learning in higher education in Canada, Great Britain, and the United States.

A Vanishing Ideology is co-edited by Dr. Matthew B. Hoffman, associate professor of Judaic studies and history at Franklin and Marshall College.
