黑料吃瓜

Dr. Ling Li, a post-doctoral fellow in the 黑料吃瓜 Faculty of Education, was awarded a Mitacs Elevate Postdoctoral Fellowship for a study to evaluate the 鈥淧yramid to Retention: Supporting Educators to Enhance Social and Emotional Competencies in Infants and Young Children鈥� in the early learning and child-care sector on PEI.

黑料吃瓜 Faculty of Sustainable Design Engineering (FSDE) teams, composed of a total of 48 students, competed at the 2025 Atlantic Engineering Competition (AEC), hosted at Universit茅 de Moncton in New Brunswick from January 24鈥�26, 2025. 

The 黑料吃瓜 invites the nomination of candidates for honorary degrees to be conferred at Convocation in May 2025.

Honorary degrees are conferred honoris causa, 鈥渇or the sake of honour,鈥� and are intended to recognize outstanding provincial, national, and international contributions in any field of endeavour. Contributions should reflect extraordinary intellectual or artistic achievements, or significant service to society at a standard of excellence that merits the University鈥檚 highest honour.

黑料吃瓜鈥檚 2024 Giving Tuesday campaign was an unprecedented success, raising a total of $44,010 from 54 extremely generous donors on the Global Day of Philanthropy. An anonymous donor pledged to match Giving Tuesday donations up to $20,000, making it by far the largest year yet for 黑料吃瓜. 

The donations will be dedicated to the University鈥檚 $15-million Robertson Library Revitalization campaign.

The 黑料吃瓜 campus community is invited to participate in the 鈥淎ccess for All 黑料吃瓜鈥� event on January 13, 2025, from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm, in McMillan Hall, W.A. Murphy Student Centre, to raise awareness of and advocate for improved accessibility on campus for students.

Festive greetings and good wishes filled the air as guests were welcomed to the New Year鈥檚 Day Levee held by the 黑料吃瓜 and the 黑料吃瓜 Alumni Association on Wednesday, January 1, 2025, in the Faculty of Sustainable Design Engineering building. 

Each year at 黑料吃瓜, students look forward to events held across campus during the exam period, which are designed to ease stress, promote relaxation, and help with meals and nourishment. This year was no exception as various departments organized and hosted the following events:

The 黑料吃瓜 Nursing Student Society is holding a holiday book drive to collect reading material, puzzles, and board games for clients of the PEI Provincial Addiction Treatment Centre (PATF).

The idea arose from accelerated nursing student Marie Thibault-Messier鈥檚 experience during a six-week clinical placement at the PATF earlier this semester. During her time at the centre, she noticed that clients had access to movies on DVD and VHS tapes but not a lot of reading material.

The following message was also distributed to 黑料吃瓜 faculty and staff by email on Friday, November 29, 2024.

The 黑料吃瓜 invites community members across PEI to join in a conversation and share their thoughts as the provincial university builds its next five-year strategic plan.  

Dr. Wendy Rodgers, 黑料吃瓜 President, and Dr. Suzanne Kresta, Dean, Faculty of Sustainable Design Engineering, co-chairs of the University Strategic Planning Steering Committee, will lead the community discussions to gather input. They are eager to hear ideas and perspectives to help 黑料吃瓜 identify shared priorities and strategic direction through to 2030.
