Well said. The solidarity we now have across faculty and students was the only bright spot in this whole mess. No more #DalProud, I'm incredibly #DalMad & that breaking of trust will be hard to repair #KeepDalStrong

Image of a presentation on screen in a classroom. There are 5 people standing in front of the presentation. They are all smiling at the camera. The occasion is a PhD defence with the candidate and committee shown in the photo.
What a star @juliakontak.bsky.social is! Excellent defence performance + no revisions! Her @dalhealth.bsky.social PhD thesis unpacked the process of student engagement #HealthPromotingSchools had 5 manuscripts, 3 already published. I could not be prouder of her achievements #DalProud #UpLiftNS
Three people pose for a photo at a graduation ceremony, the location is a lobby, with windows in the background, a low wall and carpeted floor. The person to the left, Indigenous Elder Ann LaBillois is in ceremonial robes and carrying a drum. The person in the middle (me) is holding the New Dawn Staff, a beautifully crafted Indigenous artifact that is used to lead in the processions of graduands in all ceremonies, and wearing the academic robe of the University of Leeds. The person to the right, Steve Machat is wearing the academic robe of Dalhousie University and carrying a black folder.
Convocation at @dalhousieu.bsky.social is already pretty special but yesterday I got to carry the New Dawn Staff behind Elder Ann, celebrate the #DalHAHP grads in my @universityofleeds.bsky.social academic robe, & welcome newly minted Dr. Machat @policyaction.bsky.social on stage with me! #DalProud
