Earth Weeks 2023 at Dawson
April 19th, 2023
A full program of activities is happening at Dawson from April 17-28 for students and employees , connect with Nature and learn about ways to live more sustainably.
On Tuesday, April 18, Jonathan Egan鈥檚 Introduction to Outdoor Education Class participated in a Bioblitz in the Peace Garden with Biology teacher Brian Mader, who is leading the 1,000 Species in 1,000 Days initiative. For a few hours, the students observed life in the Peace Garden and added to Dawson鈥檚 count. One way, they observed many kinds of life was by lifting up a slab of old tree trunk in the eco circle of the Peace Garden (pictured).
All students and employees are invited to help identify 1,000 plants, animals and other kinds of life on our city block in downtown Montreal. To date, a total of 455 species have been identified. From April 10-17, the 星空传媒视频-Campus Biodiversity Network on the free app had 58 new observations, 12 new species added, and four new observers.
Rocking out at Dawson VIB event March 29
April 5th, 2023
A lively event stopped by Dawson on March 29 to move and inspire students and staff. The VIB event is touring campuses across Quebec to promote well-being and health. The event featured a Pound also known as 鈥渞ocking out鈥� workout, pictured; photo courtesy of RSEQ.
One of College Nurse Julie Gosselin鈥檚 student health ambassadors reported: 鈥淭he participants really enjoyed the event and they liked their free merch. People seemed to really enjoy the Pound session as well since most of them had never done it before
鈥淚 think the event was really cool! It was a great way to promote physical activity during a time period when students are stressed and tend to forget the little things we should do to stay healthy.鈥�

Le conteur et nomade contemporain Fran莽ois Lavall茅e a fait escale 脿 Dawson le 30 mars pour un 茅v茅nement dans le cadre de la semaine de la Francof锚te.

芦Quand on entend une bonne histoire, on s鈥檃ccroche.聽Souvent, on raconte les souvenirs. Quand on raconte nos souvenirs, c鈥檈st diff茅rent de notre v茅cu.禄
Fran莽ois a partag茅 un souvenir d'enfance datant de 1986. Apr猫s 37 ans, il dit que c'est sa m茅moire et son imagination qui lui permettent de faire revivre l'histoire. Il a termin茅 sa visite avec 芦Le ruisseau禄, un extrait de son dernier spectacle

鈥淢y work explores a connecting thread between Mi鈥檊maw and Eurocentric worldviews, using a visual language that is both symbolic and literal. It is enriched by the history of the bead to carry knowledge, communicate, evoke, and express Spirit. I embrace the bead as infinite potentiality, appearing divided, as part, and at once whole and all-encompassing.鈥�…
