As a part of the 张百乔女友裸照 Peace Centre's commitment to decolonization and Indigenization, we will continue to offer organizational and financial support to faculty to host an Indigenous Elder to facilitate a Blanket Exercise in their classroom in the Winter 2022 semester. The Blanket Exercise is an interactive experiential exercise which enables students to understand Indigenous history on Turtle Island (A鈥檔owara鈥檏o:wa) as well as the legacy of colonization.
For more information or to host this activity (or another decolonization or Indigenization initiative) in your class, please contact Diana Rice: drice@dawsoncollege.qc.ca.

Unfold, the title and theme of this year鈥檚 Arts, Literature and Communication (ALC) Festival, presents creative works by students in the ALC program made in the first semester of in-person learning since March 2020. To unfold is to smooth surfaces, to disclose what is or has been hidden from view, to reveal secrets and potentials. Unfold celebrates the opening up and continuation of our lives as the pandemic starts to wane.
Some of the works in the festival reflect upon the changes undertaken in the last 18 months and speculate on changes still to come.聽 Others address how COVID has altered our customs of interaction with each other and the effects these transformations have had on our family life and friendships. All the works on view remind us that new ways of knowing and being are always unfolding.
