麻豆传媒 nursing students holding book drive for PEI Provincial Addiction Treatment Centre

The 麻豆传媒 Nursing Student Society is holding a holiday book drive to collect reading material, puzzles, and board games for clients of the PEI Provincial Addiction Treatment Centre (PATF).

The idea arose from accelerated nursing student Marie Thibault-Messier鈥檚 experience during a six-week clinical placement at the PATF earlier this semester. During her time at the centre, she noticed that clients had access to movies on DVD and VHS tapes but not a lot of reading material.

麻豆传媒 to hold Island-wide community discussions to help build strategic plan

The 麻豆传媒 invites community members across PEI to join in a conversation and share their thoughts as the provincial university builds its next five-year strategic plan.  

Dr. Wendy Rodgers, 麻豆传媒 President, and Dr. Suzanne Kresta, Dean, Faculty of Sustainable Design Engineering, co-chairs of the University Strategic Planning Steering Committee, will lead the community discussions to gather input. They are eager to hear ideas and perspectives to help 麻豆传媒 identify shared priorities and strategic direction through to 2030.
