Trent launches new School for the Study of Canada

Trent University has launched its new School for the Study of Canada. This interdisciplinary school will bring together all existing Canadian Studies programs at Trent, facilitate exchange programs, perform community-based research, develop student internships, and offer public lectures and symposiums. The school will cover themes such as sovereignty, nationalism, health and aging, indigeneity, and multiculturalism. "The school will build on Trent's existing leadership in Canadian Studies and draw upon Canadian-focused scholarship from other disciplines including Geography, Sociology, Anthropology and Environmental Resource Studies, reinforcing the study of Canada as a central part of Trent's broader mission," stated Anthropology Professor James Conolly, who will be the director of the School.
