The Department of Animal Biosciences offers our deepest sympathies to the Indigenous Peoples and communities during this sad and difficult time. As we observe National Indegneous History Month, the horrific discovery of 751 unmarked graves of Indigenous children on the grounds of former residential schools, in addition to the remains of 215 children found in May, are tragic reminders of the truths of Canada's past.
The Department of Animal Biosciences would like to congratulate the Class of 2021 which includes our newest Animal Science, Animal Biology and Equine Management graduates! The past year has certainly been a challenging one and you should all be extremely proud of your accomplishements. Wishing you all the best as you start your next adventures.
