Gwynne Dyer to Speak at UPEI - February 25
Canadian journalist and author Gwynne Dyer will be speaking at UPEI on Monday, February 25 at 7.00 pm in the Duffy Science Centre, room 135. Gwynne Dyer has worked as a freelance journalist, columnist, broadcaster, and lecturer on international affairs for more than 20 years, but he trained as a historian. Born in Newfoundland, he received degrees from Canadian, American, and British universities, finishing with a PhD in Military and Middle Eastern History from the University of London.

Bullying - Wear Pink - February 27
Bullying is a form of harassment, but personal and more intense. It has always been a part of our culture and it doesn’t just happen on the school playground. In the workplace, bullying is more likely to occur where there is an authoritarian style of management, during times of restructuring and when there are excessive demands placed on individuals. It is a serious affliction that undermines productivity and morale. The worst examples occur in private. The UPEI Healthy Campus Committee, in conjunction with the Fair Treatment Office, invites all faculty, staff, and students to get involved in the annual Anti-Bullying Day by wearing pink on Wednesday, February 27. One person can change many.
