A MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR
20-year-old Marianne Teigen recently published her first young adult novel, and in only a month, it has reached the New York Times Bestsellers list.
Residence Life Coordinator Cristina Aranda
H
ello CampusOne! I hope you all had a great beginning of the year. January surprised us with another province lock down, but if we have to go back to online learning, there is no place to be like this beautiful building, surrounded by residence friends. We are all ready for February with the reopening of our Gym, and ready to go try some restaurants in the nearby area.
If you have been feeling blue lately, do not worry, you are not alone, most of us are going through this covid fatigue, but brighter days are coming for sure. Meanwhile, stay tuned for more events that our Res Life Team will be hosting for you! & if you ever need to talk with someone, all our Staff is here for you!

NATIONAL FLAG OF CANADA DAY At the stroke of noon on February 15, 1965, Canada’s red and white maple leaf flag was raised for the very first time on Parliament Hill. On the same day in 1996, National Flag of Canada Day was declared. Our national flag is a symbol that unites all Canadians and reflects the common values we hold so dear — equality, diversity and inclusion. On February 15, 2021, let’s celebrate the #CanadianFlag!
