This year, two of our third year Indigenous students, Paige Wilson and Richard Kulesza, along with me as their coach, participated in the annual Kawaskimhon Aboriginal Moot. The Moot involves a multi-party negotiation with normally 7 to 8 parties represented at each table (this year four tables occurred simultaneously).

On Feb. 8, 30 students, staff, and faculty members at the Schulich School of Law participated in the nation-wide Day of Solidarity. The Day of Solidarity was created to promote unity and understanding in the wake of President Trump’s controversial immigration and refugee policies. In similar gatherings in law schools across the country, students came together to learn about Islam’s positive impact on the lives of their classmates.

Faculty and students had a chance to catch up with House Speaker Geoff Regan ('83) on a recent visit to campus
