Three incredibly talented actors performed a staged reading of Daniel MacIvor’s Marion Bridge for the ENGL:338 Canadian Theatre class! Thank you Laura Teasdale, Jenn Priddle, Anat Kriger. So grateful to have this generous community of theatre artists. @stfxuniversity @StFXEnglish
Fantastic research presentations on witches, censorship, Disney princesses, the #MeToomovement, The Handmaid’s Tale, villains and so much more by StFX English students at student Research Day tonight! @stfxuniversity @StFXEnglish
My 8yo’s class. Wonderful idea!
Great job to Madame Babin’s class who put together a dozen birthday cake kits for the local food bank. The kits were complete with all the necessary ingredients, a pan, frosting, and candles! Such a creative and meaningful way to contribute to someone’s special day!

I’m here at #MLA2024 enjoying the Presidential Plenary on the Poetics of Celebration with Ato Quayson on the performance of laughter as well as Simon Gikandi and Evie Shockley on the paradox of violence and joy, sorrow and celebration.
Such important work by @stfxuniversity @StFXEnglish student @reneepapp on sexual violence in Canadian literature.
In honour of the 16 Days of Activism against Gender Based Violence, English student Renee Papp has put together a book display and statement for a book display on sexual violence in Canadian Literature.
Thank you Renee!

3 #stfx English students, Sara Waldron, Ciara Wainwright, and Taylor DeCoste, are working as conference assistants for the @CATR_ACRT annual conference, which is taking place across at least 8 time zones!
Likely the littlest guest speaker at StFX University today. My daughter came to discuss The Book with No Pictures by @bjnovak in a Children’s Lit class this morning and was a big hit. @StFXEnglish
