The Atlantic Science Links Association鈥檚 second junior high science contest brought some of Nova Scotia鈥檚 brightest young scientific minds to the Dalhousie campus for a celebration of their achievements.

Faten Alshazly, co-founder of WeUsThem, and Daniel Bartek, co-founder of Ace Beverage Group and WakeWater Beverage Company, discussed the importance of connecting with people at the 2024 Neville Gilfoy Entrepreneurship Panel.

The day before receiving an honorary degree from Dalhousie, mental health advocate and Member of the Order of Canada Dr. Austin Mardon delivered a public lecture discussing the stigma of mental illness and his life and career since being diagnosed with schizophrenia.

Alumni returned to Dal late last month amidst the buzz of Spring Convocation, participating in a champagne brunch, mentorship mixers, Faculty-organized tours, panel discussions, the awarding of alumni awards, and more.

Six events and more than 4,500 kilometres later, the promise of Dalhousie's campaign for transformational change is starting to be fulfilled.
