Hello ESC members,

We have a few announcements about events taking place at this year’s ESC JAM in Quebec City!

  • SEPAC (ESC’s Student and Early Professional Affairs Committee) is organizing and running a silent auction during the meeting. The purpose of the silent auction is to raise funds for student awards for ESC (we have a series of scholarships that students can apply for). We are looking for donations of different items (e.g. postcards, jewelry, books, art, etc.) to have in the auction. If you have any items that you would like to donate to the silent auction, please reach out to us!
  • SEPAC is also looking for volunteers to table at the silent action. Please reach out to SEPAC if you would like to volunteer with us!
  • SEPAC would like to invite graduate students to submit their application packages for the Graduate Student Showcase (GSS). The purpose of the GSS is to provide a high-profile opportunity for graduate students near the completion of their degrees to present a more in-depth overview of their thesis research. The GSS application deadline is on September 1, 2024. Click here for full GSS application information. Presentations not selected for the GSS will be included in the President’s Prize competition.

Any questions can be directed to students@esc-sec.ca or you can contact Berenice (berenice.romero@usask.ca).
