Student Affairs Weekly - September 22nd, 2017

We Care About YouIt's hard to believe that 3 weeks since the start of the new year has already passed by. As tests and assignments start to become a reality, it is important that you continue to take good care of yourself along the way. Next week, the Student Success Centre brings to you "Care Week" with all sorts of ways to take care of yourself and others. Join us for a food drive to help others in need on Wednesday, September 27th. Or join a free yoga drop in class outside of the Braun Building on Wednesday at 1:15 pm.  For other ways to take care, visit: https://www.lakeheadu.ca/current-students/student-success-centre/orientation/thunder-bay-orientation/september-events-orientation
