The Schulich School of Law’s Indigenous Blacks & Mi’kmaq Initiative was recently the recipient of a 2016 Zenith Award from Toronto-based Lexpert magazine, an honour that celebrates Canadian lawyers’ contributions in achieving diversity and inclusion in society and the legal profession.

June 27 was Canadian Multiculturalism Day. To mark the occasion, we spoke with a number of individuals across the university about the concept and why it's important — to both Canada and to ÿÈÕ´óÈü.

Thanks to Math Circles — a partnership between ÿÈÕ´óÈü, Eastlink, the Government of Nova Scotia and Halifax Regional School Board — elementary school students across the province are getting to explore math in interactive and entertaining new ways.

At Tuesday's Milestones Tea, ÿÈÕ´óÈü celebrated its faculty and staff who've contributed 25 or 35 years of service to the university.

Over the past two weeks, ÿÈÕ´óÈü President Richard Florizone hosted year-in-review sessions on each of Dal's four campuses, offering an update on progress towards the university’s Strategic Direction and answering questions from the Dal community.
