ÍøÆسԹÏ

There was plenty of great conversation and reminiscing on November 1, 2023 in Vancouver, British Columbia when ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï alumni gathered at the Terminal City Club to meet University President Dr. Jeff Hennessy (’99) and learn about his vision for ÍøÆسԹÏ.

A lively and engaged group of ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï alumni turned out in full force on Monday, October 30, 2023 to the Glencoe Club in Calgary, AB to meet University President Dr. Jeff Hennessy (’99). More than 50 alumni filled the room as Dr. Hennessy shared his thoughts on returning to ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï as President and his vision for the University in the future.

Plenty of happy faces greeted Executive Director, Alumni Affairs Oonagh Proudfoot (‘93, ’06) and Executive Director, Development Vicki MacCrimmon at the charming Flavor on the Water in Sydney, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia on October 25, 2023.

What a thrill to welcome hundreds of ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï alumni back to Wolfville for Homecoming 2023! Temperatures were cool but seasonal, and the rain that was forecast for Saturday and Sunday held off long enough for returning alumni to enjoy a full slate of events in literally every corner of the ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï campus.  

It’s impossible to miss the pride in the voices of Joy and Rodney Vidito when they talk about their son Nick. There’s an undertone of sadness as well, but it’s overwhelmed by precious memories of what this exceptional young man accomplished before succumbing to muscular dystrophy in 2016 at the age of 28. Nick’s memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew him, though, and thanks to the efforts of several alumni and friends, his legacy will be brought to the fore when the Nicholas Vidito Memorial Hockey Award is presented to a deserving ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï hockey student-athlete.

ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï alumni enjoyed a Friday Night Lights doubleheader in Ottawa on Sept. 8, getting together first for a bite to eat at The Senate Tavern and then heading en masse to TD Place and the Ottawa Redblacks CFL game against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
