ÈâÈ⴫ý’s first Virtual Open House took place this past Saturday and though COVID-19 made for a different event than ever before, the new format allowed more attendees than ever to attend, with representation from more than 60 countries.

ÈâÈ⴫ý alumni Shawna Y. Paris-Hoyte (BA’78, LLB’94, BSW’01, MSW’03) and the Honourable Dr. Donald Oliver (LLB’64, LLD’03) are among the Order of Nova Scotia’s 2020 recipients.
