Living Campus Case Support
Reconnecting people, community and Nature CASE FOR SUPPORT © Rosalia Cerro © Samuel Trudelle-Gendron COVER PHOTO: As a student at Dawson, Emilie Usher was a caretaker of the Ecological Peace Garden, member of the student-driven Green Earth Club and helped maintain the rooftop bee colonies. She is now employed maintaining urban honey bee colonies and enjoys educating society about these fascinating creatures. Reconnecting people, community and Nature* * The word Nature was introduced in the 12th century in reference to all of the living and non-living things in the [email protected] universe. A capital “N” was used out of respect and admiration. During the industrial revolution, as humans began advancing the economy through the depletion of Nature’s resources, the word came to be spelled with a lower case “n”, suggesting a reduced status in the collective world view. Living Campus is restoring its status with a capital letter. 1 DAWSON COLLEGE Dawson College is located in the heart of downtown Montreal in a historic build- ing on 12 acres of green space occupying an entire city block. The College’s student population numbers approximately 10,000, with day and evening students enrolled in more than 50 fields of study. It is the largest college (CEGEP) in the province and one of the most attractive, modern and well-equipped colleges in the country. We are a microcosm of the world with many languages, ethnic backgrounds, cultures and religions. Dawson College moved to the former Mother House of the Congrégation de Notre-Dame in 1988, consolidating all its facilities under one roof.
