Are you a person of faith, or do you follow a spiritual path? Come meet Trent Spiritual Affairs staff and learn about what Trent has to offer. At this informal drop-in style event, students can learn about Trent's Multi-Faith Network, find out what faith-based clubs exist on campus, and explore our campus prayer space. We welcome students from all faith traditions, as well as students who are considering questions of meaning, purpose and identity.

Good notetaking is an essential skill for academic success, yet many people struggle to take notes they find to be useful. Learn how to identify the important details to note and discover the importance of your own questions and short summaries in notetaking. In this session, an Academic Skills instructor will introduce a variety of approaches to taking notes that are appropriately detailed, well organized, and useful for writing papers or studying for exam. Find a new strategy to try and make it your own!

Using as many ingredients from the Second Breakfast event as possible, students will be challenged to make a dish that reminds them of home! They have 1 hour to cook, and judges will vote on the most creative use of ingredients.

• 1 cup of broccoli (frozen or fresh - whichever!)
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 6 eggs
• Shredded cheese
• Oil (Vegetable/Olive will work!)

Coming to a different country is scary. Four of our Cultural Assistants will share their first-year experiences when transitioning to Canada. They will share the challenges they faced as well as some resources that helped overcome them. Everyone's story is different, but this may help YOUR transition. Ask questions and enjoy a good conversation.  

Do you identify as a student living with a mental health condition? If so, your transition to university may come with some unique challenges.

This event is an opportunity for students living off-campus to gather and collect information about Orientation Week.
