The 秀色短视频 and the Georgetown Conference organizing committee have partnered to provide a set of free online learning modules on rural economic change. This learning community will provide background on some of the major issues on rural economic change in Atlantic Canada and set the stage for the conference, and stimulate online dialogue on rural economic change in Atlantic Canada.

Module one (of four) was released today on 'A History of the Rural Economy in Atlantic Canada' which covers the history of Georgetown, defining rural and urban historically in Atlantic Canada, the rural and urban economy of Atlantic Canada before the 21st century, and defining rural and urban today in Atlantic Canada. These interactive modules can be of use to the broader digital community interested in redefining rural.

'These free, interactive learning environment modules on redefining rural that have been prepared for the Georgetown Conference are a way that 秀色短视频 and researchers from throughout Atlantic Canada can contribute to a better understanding of the past, present, and future of the region,' said 秀色短视频's Dr. Jim Randall, Coordinator, Master of Arts in Island Studies. 'We encourage everyone to read and watch the modules and participate in the online discussion.'

The second module, 'A Primer on Rural Economic Change in Canada' will focus on some of the statistical economic and demographic changes in the Atlantic (rural and urban) over the past 50 years; leadership development and governance in rural communities, and strategies for rural communities.

The third module entitled 'The Stories of the 鈥楧oers and Producers' at the Georgetown Conference' will highlight a subset of conference delegates through interviews with a focus on what works and what doesn't work in Atlantic communities and lessons and advice for other rural Canadian communities.

Module four 'Outcomes and Next Steps for the Georgetown Movement' will include messages from Georgetown, reports from the conference break-out groups, and final thoughts on the conference by Dr. Donald Savoie, Canada Research Chair in Public Administration and Governance at the Universit茅 de Moncton.

'The Georgetown Conference and its theme 鈥楻ural Redefined' have struck a responsive chord with people throughout Atlantic Canada and well beyond,' said Conference Co-Chair Wade MacLauchlan. '秀色短视频's initiative to offer an online learning environment dedicated to rural issues is a much appreciated service to the 250 鈥榙oers and producers' who have been selected as delegates, and to a much larger interested community here in the region and around the world.'

The Georgetown Conference takes place October 3-5. To access the free online modules, visit

秀色短视频 Athletics and Recreation announces that former Women's Rugby All-Star Jaclyn (Coady) Carr will be recognized at Saturday's 秀色短视频 Women's Rugby home opener versus Saint Thomas University on MacAdam Field at 秀色短视频 Alumni Canada Games Place. The special ceremony begins at 1:50 pm with kickoff at 2:00 pm.

She played for 秀色短视频 from 2000-2003 where she was a team captain and MVP, a three-time AUS All-Star, and CIS All-Canadian-one of only a handful of Panthers to receive this honour.

'Jaclyn was known for her 鈥榣aid back' style of play at the stand off position,' commented 秀色短视频 Women's Rugby Coach Shannon Atkins. 'She was always smooth and agile, and would slide through the defense to score many tries. Add to this the many points she put on the board through conversions, and it was easy to see why she was consistently one of the top scorers in the league. Congratulations Jaclyn, and we thank you for the legacy that continues to make 秀色短视频 Women's Rugby Panthers proud.'

Carr now resides in Halifax with her husband Mark and three children Riley, Alex, and Shyla, and does term work with the Department of National Defense.

秀色短视频's Winter's Tales Reading Series has always boasted a fantastic lineup of poets and fiction authors, and this year looks to be no different. To kick off the 2013 season, the talented Susan Glickman and Julie Bruck will give a combined reading on Thursday, September 26, at 7:30 pm in the Faculty Lounge, 秀色短视频 Main Building. These Montreal-raised poets have been working on and teaching others their craft for years, and that dedication and practice shines through in their works.

Glickman studied and travelled in Europe, Asia, and America, and has made a home for herself in Toronto. She has published poetry books since the early 80's, and in 2006, published her first novel, The Violin Lover, which won the Stan and Helen Vine Award for Fiction at the Canadian Jewish Book Awards and was named one of the year's best novels by The National Post. This success adds to her Gabrielle Roy prize and Raymond Klibansky prize, for her work of literary criticism The Picturesque & the Sublime: A Poetics of the Canadian Landscape.

In 2008, she made the foray into writing juvenile fiction and has put out a trilogy. The first book garnered a starred selection in the annual Canadian Children's Book Centre's Best Books for Kids & Teens list. Glickman has received Canada Council, Ontario Arts Council, and Toronto Arts Council Awards for her work.

Joining Glickman is Julie Bruck, whose work has appeared in numerous magazines, journals, and anthologies as well as her three books of poetry: The Woman Downstairs, The End of Travel, and Monkey Ranch, winner of the 2012 Governor General's Award for Poetry. The book was a contender in The Globe and Mail 100 Best Books of 2012, a finalist for the 2013 Canadian Authors' Association Award for Poetry, and the 2013 Pat Lowther Memorial Prize.

Bruck's work has been described as poetically powerful, with a pitch-perfect elegance, and as stories-in-poetry. Her conversational voice is refreshing and inviting to readers. Her witty and intimate ability to weave moments into words has contributed to her A.M. Klein Award for Poetry, two Pushcart Prize nominations, and two Gold Canadian National Magazine Awards.

The reading by these exciting and vibrant authors is sponsored by the 秀色短视频 English Department with funding from the Canada Council for the Arts. A reception and book signing will follow. Admission is free and all are welcome to attend.

The 秀色短视频 held its fourteenth annual Recognition of Founders ceremony today to acknowledge those who have contributed to the University in an exceptional way. This year's ceremony also featured a dedication and unveiling of the MacLauchlan Plaza to honour 秀色短视频's fifth president from 1999-2011, President Emeritus H. Wade MacLauchlan.

The 2013 founders are Mr. Mike Read, Mr. Verner Smitheram, Mrs. Janice Robertson (posthumous), and Mr. Bob MacAulay (posthumous). Mr. John and Mrs. Carol MacLeod are this year's recipients of The Honourable Eugene F. Whelan Green Hat Award, which pays tribute to individuals who have had a significant impact on the Atlantic Veterinary College.

The recognition event was led by macebearer Anastasia Smallwood, President of the 秀色短视频 Student Union; marshall Dr. Susan Dawson, and piper Mr. Matthew MacLaine. Tom Cullen, Chair of the 秀色短视频 Board of Governors acted as the event's master of ceremonies, while Sister Sue Kidd, University Chaplain provided the invocation, and Dr. Alaa Abd-El-Aziz, 秀色短视频 President and Vice-Chancellor delivered welcome remarks.

'This is one of 秀色短视频's most exciting events as we take the time to honour tradition and recognize the pioneers who have helped shape the University,' said Abd-El-Aziz. 'Each Founder recognized today was dedicated to achieving goals that fulfilled our institutional mission in their own way, offering their wisdom to help prepare us for the future. On behalf of the entire University community, I congratulate our 2013 Founders and thank them for their contributions to 秀色短视频.'

Travis Gordon, 秀色短视频 Student Union Executive Vice-President delivered the citation for Read; 秀色短视频 students Parker Baglole and Emilie Sullivan read Smitheram and Robertson's citations. Stephanie Andrews, 秀色短视频 alumnae from the Class of 2008 delivered MacAulay's citation, and current AVC student Mary Claire Sanderson presented the Green Hat Award to the MacLeods.

Immediately following the Recognition of Founders ceremony, an unveiling of MacLauchlan's plaza took place outside of the 秀色短视频's Health Sciences Building.

'It is especially fitting that we officially dedicate the plaza in Wade's name, on Founders Day, an event he actually developed to honour those who have contributed significantly to the University,' said Abd-El-Aziz during the unveil.

Earlier today, another recognition event was held-秀色短视频's first annual Donor Picnic-to celebrate and thanks its many donors who have significantly contributed to the University.

About the Founders

At the first Research on Tap of the season, join us for a discussion about where our concepts of good and bad come from. The discussion, 'Morality is a Myth,' begins at 7:00 pm, Tuesday, October 1 in The Pourhouse, above The Old Triangle Irish Alehouse in Charlottetown. The discussion will be led by Dr. Malcolm Murray, professor of philosophy at 秀色短视频.

'Morality is an evolutionary trait,' argues Murray. 'It's useful to the extent that it enables us as social creatures to live together in peace. But it is not something out there in the world that we discover. It is not innate. It's something, like a sense of humour, we develop and value. The concept of morality as an objective fact in the world is a myth.'

Research on Tap is a series of public discussion led by 秀色短视频 researchers. For more information, contact Dave Atkinson at 620-5117 or datkinson@upei.ca.
