Nearly two decades after Bitcoin first appeared, blockchain technology remains one of the most talked-about and often misunderstood innovations of the digital age.

With the crowd buzzing inside the arena, Luke Pye glides into position for a faceoff deep in the home team’s defensive zone, directing players to set their sticks before lowering his gaze to the puck.

He steadies himself, drops it cleanly and quickly backs away as the players battle for possession.

For Pye, moments like this are the result of years of work that has taken him from local rinks to some of hockey’s biggest stages.

When Casandra Asoufi applied to volunteer at the 2026 FIFA World Cup back in September, she didn’t think much of it. 

That was until she received word just a few weeks before kick-off that she had been selected from thousands of applicants.

When recent nursing graduate Eunice Kungu travelled to Tanzania as part of the University of Windsor’s 2026 Teach Tanzania trip, it was for the second time. 

Kungu, who is originally from Kenya, first participated in the 2025 trip when she was a third-year nursing student. When the opportunity arose to return in 2026, she knew she wanted to go back. 

“What motivated me to return was the connection we built with the community and seeing the positive impact that comes from being part of this initiative,” Kungu says.

Dr. Lauren Bialystok never wanted to research artificial intelligence (AI). 

"I feel like AI chose me more than I chose it,” she says. 

However, with the ubiquity of AI, including in her field of education, Bialystok found herself drawn to the topic. 

“I’ve seen changes over the last few years that portend such enormous shifts in what education is for and how we go about our business,” she says.

For Jo Anne Cedar, nursing was never just a career — it was her identity.
