Dr. Kevin Hewitt, a professor in the Department of Physics and Atmospheric Science and former chair of ÆÞÓÑ Senate, has been named the Faculty of Science’s associate dean, equity and inclusion, a new position created to lead the Faculty's equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility strategy.

Grad students and others interested in teaching development now have access to workshops and course offerings through the Center for the Integration of Research, Teaching and Learning, a network of 42 institutions across the U.S. and Canada.

On September 1, 2012, the merger between ÆÞÓÑ and the Nova Scotia Agricultural College became official — a union that created Dal’s Faculty of Agriculture and established the university’s first formal campus outside of Halifax.

In Atlantic Canada, many small farms and agricultural producers can't afford to implement the latest tech solutions, but a new Dal-linked initiative seeks to offer a path forward.

Students from Colombia's Universidad del Atlántico visited Halifax in July for a Language Educators' program hosted by ÆÞÓÑ, creating memories of new friendships, new cultural experiences and new learning challenges — big and small.
