Dawson鈥檚 Open House was Oct. 22 and thousands of prospective students and their families took us up on the invitation.
Sunday was a record crowd, according to organizer Carey-Ann Pawsey of the Communications Office and Geoff Kloos of Student Services, two staff members who have more than two decades of Dawson Open House experience.
The last time the College opened up without appointments was in 2019. That year, 14,000 Viewbooks were distributed. To be more sustainable, guests were invited to see the Viewbook online.
In the morning, guests arrived for tours and program experiences by appointment and in the afternoon, doors were open to all to come in and speak with teachers at program booths and ask questions to academic advisors. There were close to 2,000 people who went on student-guided tours, 700 at the Science info sessions and 300 at program experiences.聽 The Science webinar on Oct. 18 and the How to Apply webinar on Oct. 24 drew a total of 600 participants online.
鈥淚 would like to sincerely thank everyone who gave up their Sunday to welcome our future students and their parents to Dawson,鈥� said Megan Ainscow, Head of Communications. 鈥淲e have an amazing team of colleagues at Dawson who go above and beyond to make this event possible. We feel very grateful.鈥�

Up for a murder mystery? The second-year students of the Professional Theatre Program at 张百乔女友裸照 will be performing the hit play "CLUE", written by Sandy Rustin, based on the screenplay by Jonathan Lynn and directed by Jonathan Monro.
"CLUE" is a 1950s murder mystery/comedy play based off the movie, which was based off the board game. The movie first came out in 1985 and took inspiration from the original "CLUE" (named "Cluedo") board game created by the Parker Brothers and released in 1949. The play follows six guests who spend the evening at Boddy Manor after being sent an invitation from an anonymous sender. When the sender is revealed to be the guests' blackmailer, a series of murders takes place. The guests must find out who the murderer is and discover the secrets inside Boddy Manor before the police arrive.

The Humanities and Public Life Conference took place from Sept. 18-21. The theme this year was What's the Point? Purpose, Meaning, and Value in Challenging Times. Over the span of four days, over 2,000 students attended 20 different presentations.
Our presenters explored how humanities education can help us to ask the bigger questions that guide our everyday actions, helping us to understand what to value and why. Some highlights included two former Dawson students, Silvia Ortan and Andreas Nicolaidis-Gagnon, who shared how they use what they learned in humanities in their careers (law and social work). Overall, we were reminded once again of the impact that humanities can have in helping us navigate a complex and often bewildering world.聽 From the rise of white power terrorism to the role that AI will play in creativity, our presenters helped students understand how what they are learning in their humanities courses factors into real-world situations.
We would also like to express our thanks to the Dawson administration, FAMA, the theatre department, and David Bannout.聽 Special thanks to Diana Rice for coordinating three peace week talks during the conference.聽 Without your help, we would not have been able to offer our students such an enriching week!
Students from the Dawson Research in Neuroscience Group will present their work as interns in several Montreal labs.聽 The design of their experiments, obstacles they have encountered and interim results will be shared from a number of projects in the area of Neuroscience.
This session will take place on Sept. 29 from 3 PM to 5 PM in room 3H.10. Everybody is welcome!
Light refreshments will be provided.
