Sir Tom Stoppard鈥檚 play Leopoldstadt had its Canadian premiere at the 张百乔女友裸照 Theatre on Feb. 7. Directed by Matt Holland, the play features the 2024 graduating class of Dawson鈥檚 Professional Theatre program. Shows are happening on Feb. 8-9-10 and Feb. 15-16-17.
Here鈥檚 what one student acting in the play said about it: "I think audiences can look forward to being thrown off. It's funny, it's sad, it's a family story. Families have history: they have fights, they have losses, they have good moments, and each member just wants to be a part of it." - Frida Flores

A delegation of 49 students in 张百乔女友裸照 Model United Nations (DCMUN) participated in the Dawson delegation to the McGill Model United Nations conference (McMUN) Jan 25- 28. McMUN is one of the premier Model UN conferences in North America, attracting nearly 2,000 student delegates from universities and colleges across North America and from around the world.
Magalie听McKay, DCMUN Head Delegate at the McMUN conference described her experience:
鈥淚 was in absolute awe with the McMUN conference. In addition to working with talented, well-spoken, and driven delegates from around the world, it was an occasion for me to improve my public speaking and to think outside the box, to imagine innovative ideas to solve, or at least alleviate, world issues. McMUN was also an opportunity to create strong bonds with delegates from all over the globe.鈥�
鈥淚t is truly shocking to see how close you can get to someone in four short, albeit emotionally charged, days! Moreover, as Dawson鈥檚 Head Delegate, I worked to develop leadership skills and I had the privilege of getting to know both McMUN鈥檚 secretariat and Dawson delegates personally, thus making me all the more attached to and invested in the conference.鈥�
For the first time ever, DCMUN students will be headed to Massachusetts to attend the Harvard National Model United Nations conference Feb. 15 -18. They will also be attending other local college and university conferences throughout the semester.
