Being a teacher is about more than getting kids up to speed on their reading, writing and math.

These skills are part of social-emotional learning (SEL), which takes place every day in elementary and secondary schools. But PhD researcher Elizabeth Szymanski (BA, ECE, BEd, MEd) says that teacher candidates don’t necessarily feel prepared to take it on.

As campus bustled with new students Tuesday, the Leddy Library celebrated the official opening of the Graduate Student Society (GSS) Study Commons with a ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Brushing the dust off and sifting through some old boxes during a bit of spring cleaning led one staff member to discover pieces of departmental history tucked away in her new office.
Monique Ritz took over the role of undergraduate program and student support secretary last October. While cleaning out her new office, she came across boxes filled with books, papers, a CBC Radio-Canada tape and other archival materials connected to the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences (FAHSS).

The English Undergraduate Student Association (EUSA) executive team set out three goals for the past term.
They included: launch this year’s zine Generation: Liminality at Biblioasis Bookshop, host two events each month and plan an overnight trip to Stratford to see a Shakespearean play.
“We did not know if the Stratford trip was going to be possible at all,” said EUSA co-president Maya Roumie. “We’re of the generation that experienced the COVID pandemic in high school, and we didn’t really get school trips the way other people did.”

Administering medication may appear straightforward, but behind every dose is a complex series of steps where errors can still occur despite the best intentions of health-care professionals.
Nearly two decades after introducing a medication incident reporting system for nursing students, the University of Windsor is seeing evidence that its efforts to build a culture of safety are taking hold.
