I'm always amazed to hear how much our Community Development students are involved in sports and leadership opportunities beyond their university studies! Congratulations Luke👏🏒We'll be cheering you on! #AcadiaPride
Last couple of days of classes here on campus, as students wrap up assignments, faculty wrap up marking, and exam studying is on the horizon! Here's a little treat I brought to my first-year student class, to remind them to be proud of what they've accomplished this term 👏❤️
