Fundamental importance of personal connection
Of late, I am often reminded of the fundamental importance of personal connection. The world seems both more virtually linked than ever before and yet, feels still so divisive. Change, innovation, resilience, adaptation, disruption: these words point to where we must go to create a society equal for all, and that allows for truly meaningful human connection.
In this issue, two outstanding alumni share their experiences as people of colour. I want to thank Peter Nkansah and Lauren Campbell for their thoughtful, and thought provoking, contributions. You’ll also read about the Faculty’s ongoing commitment to create an environment, and opportunities, that welcomes all. Every voice has its place, and I want to thank you all for giving us the space to share ours.
Sincerely,
Selina Esteves
Director, Advancement and Alumni Relations
