It is hard to believe that the year is coming to a close. I remember the excitement of planning for this year last summer, and the joy when everyone arrived on campus in September, and so very many wonderful conversations, events and opportunities to connect. For those of you who were in residence this year and are moving out, remember that you have more stuff today compared to when you arrived, and you aren’t just LEC while you are living here, you are LEC your whole time at Trent and beyond!
There are so very many people to thank for a year like this, we are a community of students, staff, faculty and alumni and the best stuff happens when we come together. My deep thanks to all the LEC student leaders, from those of you working in Housing, on Cabinet, or the TCSA or other student groups, and to each of you who in your own way lead or help or create space for this magic to happen.
I do have a special place in my heart for those students who work in the College Office. To Alex and Emily who are graduating - you will be missed and we can’t wait to hear about your adventures. And to those who are returning next year, Aditi, Ashley, Isabelle, Kari, Kaleigh, Lakshika, Maddie, and Sam, we are so glad to have you back and be on this adventure with you. All these folks bring the creativity, the energy, the humour and the care to this office and gosh they make it a very fun place to work.
We are going to take a short break from the Drumline, but we will be back in mid-May with the summer edition and some new features. In the meantime please continue to follow us on socials and if you have not already done so, download the Outlook App on your phone. You will want access to your Trent email, and the Drumline so we can keep you posted all summer about important deadlines, news and course registration information!
