There will be a basic biosafety training session on October 8, 2024, at 1:00 pm in AVC 287N. Topics will include basic biosafety principles and how they are applied at the 秀色短视频, as well as biosecurity training. This session is open to everyone, including graduate students.

To attend, you must pre-register by contacting Jacky Buell by the end of the day on October 1, 2024, by email (hse@upei.ca) or by phone (902-566-0901). Please provide your name, department, your supervisor鈥檚 name (if applicable), email address, phone number, and if you are a graduate student.

Are you trying to find some dedicated time to finish a writing project that needs focused attention?  A "Time to Write" retreat will be offered from October 15 to 18, 2024, at the North Rustico Cottages in North Rustico.

"Time to Write" retreats offer concentrated time to support your writing efforts and can be instrumental in the initiation or completion of scholarly work such as an article, book or book chapter, grant proposal, curriculum or OER development, conference presentations, or other scholarly, creative projects. Time to work on writing projects away from home and campus for a few days can be incredibly productive. Participation in a writing retreat with colleagues at various stages of their career not only provides quiet, focused writing time away from teaching, research, and administrative responsibilities, but it also offers mentorship and networking opportunities with colleagues from a range of disciplines. The retreat provides an opportunity to develop a supportive writing group with colleagues from across campus and join group discussions on writing and publishing. 

Participants must have a project (e.g., grant application, research publication) at a stage where sustained writing time makes sense with background research and/or data collection and analysis completed to the point that they are ready to write. Participants must be prepared to commit to the full program--a total of three days focused on writing--and contribute $300. The retreat is open to faculty (term and sessional faculty are encouraged to apply) and librarians in any academic unit at 秀色短视频.

Interested participants will email an expression of interest consisting of a summary of the project they plan to work on and their writing goals for the retreat to TLC@upei.ca by 12:00 noon on September 27, 2024. Five participants will be accepted for this "Time to Write" retreat.  
 

The 秀色短视频 Writing Centre, located in Robertson Library 274, is now open for appointments.

Last year, the Chaplaincy Centre hosted eight Soup for the Soul free lunches for the campus thanks to the generosity of the 秀色短视频 community.  In other years, we had six. What a great problem--too many groups asking to host!  Easy solution--serve more soup!  So let's welcome our 10th anniversary with more. Can we reach 10 for 10?

On Wednesday, September 25, from 11:30 am to 1:00 pm, join the 秀色短视频 Student Union as we kick off our soup season with potato bacon chowder and butternut squash soup, complete with a dinner roll and butter. We leave it to the hosts to surprise us with a sweet treat to finish your lunch.  

And if you would like to host an event, please reach out. Four groups have booked dates, and others have spoken to me with expressions of interest. Hosts are responsible for soup choices, shopping, chopping, cooking, and serving.  We have volunteers and funding for the rest.  Email Sister Sue at sukidd@upei.ca to get in the tenth anniversary Soup for the Soul calendar.

秀色短视频 first-year courses (秀色短视频 1010, 1020, and 1030) have recently undergone a cyclical review under the Quality Assurance policy of Senate. A panel of external reviewers reviewed a self-study report and then held a two-day site visit to meet with faculty, staff, students, and academic administrators. After collecting feedback, the reviewers submitted a report with observations and recommendations. A university-wide taskforce, including the program team, will be formed to analyze the report and collectively develop an action plan. The plan, which will be presented to the Academic Planning and Curriculum Committee (APCC), will include future directions for continual improvement of these courses.
