Nikki Toonders is a 4th year student in the School of Social Work. 3 Small classes, intensive The student/faculty interaction, quality programs, comprehensive student King’s services, and a sense of community are the hallmarks of what makes difference King’s special. Small, interactive classes led by outstanding faculty are central to the King’s experience. Classes at King’s are small by university standards as the average first year class has 50-60 students. King’s students are also Western students. They can take some of their courses at Western or at the other university colleges — Brescia or Huron. King’s students have complete access to all the facilities and services at Western University. Most importantly, King’s students graduate with a Western degree. 4 The value of the liberal arts A liberal arts education is essential to success in the 21st century. At King’s, liberal arts ideals become real-world skills. Knowing how to think critically, synthesize creatively and collaborate effectively are all skills incredibly valued in the workplace. Employers need people who can communicate effectively, think creatively and are strong leaders. A King’s education is designed to help you develop your strengths while allowing you the opportunity to discover new challenges. Our goal is to provide you with all the tools necessary to pursue a rewarding career and a meaningful life. 5 Welcome to the new Living Room of King’s! PHOTO: LISA LOGAN LISA PHOTO: Home base: On January 8, 2014, King’s opened the The Darryl J. King doors to the new Darryl J. King Student Life Centre. After seven years of fundraising and planning, our new King Centre provides the Student Life Centre community with a facility that is beautiful and functional. This new space creates a positive learning environment that enhances the opportunity for academic, social and spiritual growth of all of our students. With everything from classrooms and athletic facilities to a 490 seat theatre and a place to rest near a fireplace, the King Centre is a gathering place for our community. 6 7 What I like about King’s King’s is a place where you can choose how you want to experience university life. Whether it’s socializing or getting involved, it’s possible here because of the small and supportive community. If you have the mindset of where you want go in life, this is the perfect place to find yourself and grow as an individual. Getting connected. I first became involved at King’s during Clubs Week when I joined the Promo Team and Event Staff with Students’ Council. When I came here, I wanted to join everything and I wasn’t afraid to do things by myself because I knew I would find like-minded people. As this year’s president of Students’ Council, I’m looking forward to getting everyone on campus involved with council and working with my staff to make events more relevant to student life. It’s important for us to stay connected as a student body.

  • “Big Gay Library:” an Ethnography of the Pride Library at the University of Western Ontario
    “BIG GAY LIBRARY:” AN ETHNOGRAPHY OF THE PRIDE LIBRARY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF WESTERN ONTARIO by DANIELLE COOPER A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements of the degree of Master of Information Faculty of Information University of Toronto © Copyright by Danielle Cooper, 2011 “BIG GAY LIBRARY:” AN ETHNOGRAPHY OF THE PRIDE LIBRARY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF WESTERN ONTARIO Danielle Cooper Master of Information Faculty of Information University of Toronto 2011 Abstract Officially founded in 1997, the Pride Library is a pioneering Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Queer (LGBTQ) Canadian information-based organization. Although located within D.B. Weldon Library at the University of Western Ontario, the library maintains a primarily grassroots framework. The Pride Library case study reflects a tradition within LGBTQ communities towards preserving and disseminating information otherwise marginalized by larger society. Operating outside of conventional professional informed and institutionally-dominated models, LGBTQ communities create unique grassroots information organizational contexts. In order to develop a deeper understanding of LGBTQ information organizations, an ethnographic study of the Pride Library was developed. The thesis addresses the library’s use patterns, and approaches to space, materials and labour relations. Findings demonstrate that the Pride Library is not only valued for providing LGBTQ-specific information resources, but also for creating a symbolically significant, socially-oriented and community-based LGBTQ environment. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Thank you to my supervisor, Professor Jenna Hartel for her passion, unwavering support, and outstanding academic guidance throughout this entire process. Your visionary information ethnographic approach provided the catalyst for my own research trajectory and your excellent academic advising encouraged me to develop my academic voice – you inspire me daily.

    WESTERN COMMUNICATIONS STYLE GUIDE November 2019 Update 2 Western University’s Communications and Public Affairs Style Guide is designed to offer consistency to publications and materials. While developed specifically for Communications and Public Affairs work, the guide is made available to all members of the Western community for use as a helpful reference, if desired. Style rules for formal material such as letters, invitations, certificates and the like can differ from these guidelines. If not listed in this guide, Western follows Canadian Press (CP) on matters of style and the Oxford Canadian Dictionary of Current English on matters of spelling. Deviations and variations on these specific to Western can be found in the following guide. We consider this a living document, one that can be updated as warranted. Please forward any questions, comments, additions and/or concerns to Jason Winders, Director (Editorial Services), [email protected]. Western consulted dozens of professional and university style guides in its research. Portions of guides issued by Ryerson University, York University and the Associated Press, which addressed general and widespread issues most eloquently, were used. 3 abbreviations/acronyms Alert WesternU Spell out the first reference with abbreviation in Alert WesternU app – powered by Everbridge – is parentheses, then abbreviate afterward. the university’s emergency mass-notification Organizers hope the event can be held in system that issues safety messages in the event of the University Community Centre (UCC). campuswide emergencies.
