Regional consultations
Memorial University was established as a living memorial to those who fought and died in the First World War. With the centenary approaching, the university is seeking province-wide community input to assist in developing its program of commemorative activities to take place during 2014-2018.
We invite interested members of the public across the province to share with us your advice and suggestions on the nature of these commemorations at four public meetings:
- Friday, Oct. 26, 2012, 6-8 p.m., Grand Falls-Windsor, Mount Peyton Hotel, Newfoundland room
- Tuesday, Oct. 30, 2012, 7:30-9:30 p.m., St John's, St. John's campus, room IIC-2014, Innovation Hall, Bruneau Centre
- Monday, Nov. 5, 2012, 2:30-4:30 p.m., Corner Brook, Grenfell Campus Art Gallery
- Tuesday, Nov. 6, 2012, 12-2 p.m., Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Labrador Institute-CNA, room 106
The university is open to ideas ranging from commemorative events and academic offerings, to legacy projects such as structures or scholarships.
If you wish to provide input but cannot attend a session, please view a live webcast at 7:30 p.m. on Oct. 30 and/or fill out an online form with your suggestions by Nov. 22, 2012.
