International food scholars gather at UVic
How is large-scale food production contributing to climate change? This is one of several questions that food scholars, policy-makers and members of the public will tackle at “Cultivating Appetites for Knowledge,” a conference of international food experts taking place May 29 to June 3 at the University of Victoria.

We're looking for great grad stories
Do you know a graduating student who has an amazing story to tell? UVic Communications would like to hear about him or her. We’ll select the most compelling stories for publication in the June issue of The Ring and our convocation media relations materials. Perhaps you know a student who’s had to overcome some adversity, performed some outstanding community work en route to their degree or took a different path to post-secondary success.
Email Ring editor Robie Liscomb (robie@uvic.ca) before May 10 and tell us what makes this student special and how to contact him or her. We’ll make some selections and take it from there. |
