It’s hard work. It’s grit. It’s determination. It’s a supportive campus culture.

It’s also really fun. 3


THIS IS RESIDENCE. It’s freedom.

It’s independence.

It’s safety, security and the best place to nap on campus.

It’s late nights, early mornings and somebody knocking on your door.

LIVE ON CAMPUS.

It’s neighbours who become your emergency contacts.

It’s friendships forged in group projects and group chats.

It’s a place to study, to rest and to figure things out.

Don’t just learn on campus. Be part of it. College is more than a classroom. It’s everything that happens in between. Residence puts you in the heart of it all. Visit residence virtually: lakelandcollege.ca/residence

You’ve got practice and you’ve got classes and then you go home and still get to see each other. It’s nice, being around everybody and spending that time together. You care for each other and you trust one another on and off the court.” JENAY VARGA Class of 2025 | Resident assistant | Rustlers volleyball player | Three-time national champion 5


THIS IS RUSTLER NATION. It’s green and gold.

It’s having someone to cheer for on the court, the ice, the pitch, the water, the arena and beyond.

It’s mentoring and coaching future Rustlers.

It’s succeeding in the classroom, in the community and in competition.

It’s excellence, on and off the field.

GUARANTEES: • Someone’s going to paint their face green. • You’re going to lose your voice cheering. • You’ll get caught up in the energy. • You might not know the teams when you arrive, but you’ll be a fan when you leave.

The hands-on part about Lakeland is my favourite. Many companies look to hire Lakeland students because we already have field skills. They don’t have to teach us how to use a gill net, for example. We’ve already done it. It’s important to hire people with that kind of experience, so that will really help us with jobs in the future.” ROSEMARY THOMPSON
