The Dal AC Rams are offering sport camps this summer!

Beginning in 1995, when Nova Institution for Women (Nova) was opened as a federal prison, a therapeutic horticulture program was developed and delivered by the Nova Scotia Agricultural College, now the Faculty of Agriculture.

Dalhousie was recently informed by Moodle Rooms that the contracted services will be terminated within six months. That means Moodle will not be available for use effective this fall.

A celebration of life will be held for former NSAC professor and department head Dr. John Bubar
