SUMMARY:Western Manitoba Science Fair
DESCRIPTION:Brandon University is thrilled to welcome the Western Manitoba Science Fair to the BU Healthy Living Centre. \nPublic viewing of the projects is open from 2–4 p.m. \nLearn more at wmsf.com \nAbout the WMSF\nThe Western Manitoba Science Fair is the Regional Science Fair for Southwestern Manitoba and has been in operation since 1969. It provides an opportunity for students to showcase their scientific talent for their parents\, teachers\, and the community. Applicants come from grades 1 through 12. The WMSF is a full day event\, held in spring every year\, and we usually host around 500 hundred students. The participants set up their projects first thing in the morning\, and then judging begins! After presenting their projects to the judges\, the participants are provided with some entertainment and educational activities (the ‘Science Olympics’) while the judges are tabulating their results.  In the early afternoon there is a public viewing of the projects where community members and media can view the projects and talk to the participants. The award/medal ceremonies are held at the end of the day. We award bronze\, silver\, and gold medals\, in addition to various Special Awards. The final awards of the evening are Best of Fair and the Runner(s) Up; these top projects of the fair in grades 7 – 12 receive an all expenses paid trip to compete in the Canada Wide Science Fair. \nIn addition to the students\, the WMSF also welcomes around 150 community members each year to judge at the fair. This group of amazing volunteers is made up of university and college professors and students\, local business owners and employees\, and community members of all ages. We are always looking for more judges\, so click on the ‘Volunteer’ tab at the top of the page for more info if you are interested! \nWMSF is organized and run by a very small group of dedicated volunteers. We are funded by a combination of donations and sponsorships from local businesses and organizations. \nBrandon University proud to be a Strategic Partner!

SUMMARY:Teach-in: EDI in education
DESCRIPTION:A teach-in today at Brandon University brings faculty and community members together to emphasize the value of Equity\, Diversity\, and Inclusion to higher education. \nDrawing on roots in student activism in the 1960s\, a teach-in is a type of participatory educational forum\, typically oriented towards action. Today’s teach-in will include a panel of speakers with knowledge\, expertise\, experience\, and insights about the importance of EDI in higher education now and – especially – in the future. \nThe panel will consist of brief opening remarks from each panelist that include views on the undermining of EDI to date and the significance of EDI going forward. Speakers will discuss how the threats to EDI have impacted them and others in the community. Following the opening remarks\, the teach-in will move into a dialogue with the audience. \nThe event will take place in the mingling area from 4:45–6 p.m. on Tuesday\, February 11\, and there will be refreshments provided by Bailey’s. \nToday’s teach-in was organized by the equity committee of the BU Faculty Association\, which points at executive orders dismantling EDI in the United States\, and the recent pullback from EDI language in Canada as requiring a response.

SUMMARY:'Owl Calling' staged reading
DESCRIPTION:The call of an owl becomes an omen for Eddie\, a former residential school student in Brandon University professors Darrell Racine and Dale Lakevold’s new play Owl Calling. But what kind of an omen will it be for a man who has just opened up about his residential school experience?\n\n \n\n \n\nThe play premieres in Winnipeg September 25 — with a staged reading in Brandon at BU’s Evans Theatre on Oct. 3 as part of the university’s Truth and Reconciliation Week.\n\n \n\nOwl Calling depicts the journey that two Indigenous men undertake with their families as they go through the federal government’s compensation process for former residential school students.\n\n \n\nTheir families believe this process will help Eddie and his brother-in-law Jim heal from their school experience and find justice. But the compensation model\, as the family members in the play discover\, has little to do with healing.\n\nThe staged reading is free to all\, and takes place at BU’s Evans Theatre beginning at 7 p.m. on Thursday\, Oct. 3.\n\nRead more about Owl Calling.

We will harvest the potatoes\, the last of the tomatoes and peppers\, and the last of the kale. We will also pull out all the weeds and prepare the garden beds for the winter\, by turning the soil. \nWe won’t ask for much of your time\, and this will be a kid friendly event\, so please bring all of your family! Please come to BU at 5 PM\, and we will work together until 7 PM. \nPlease meet us just behind the bus shelter on 18th street\, next to the Brodie Building; if you have them\, bring a shovel and some gardening gloves. Please RVSP to Petrellas@brandonu.ca\, so that I have a sense of how many volunteers we will have\, and I can bring snacks and refreshments for everyone. \nThank you\, lovely people!
