In the shadows of past Halloweens, only offices under Student Services dispensed delights. This year, we’re unleashing a wider web of candy-filled surprises throughout the campus! The Campus Life Office invites other offices and employees to join in the fun and festivities and expand Dawson’s spooktacular trick-or-treating event.
If you dare to participate in this eerie escapade, let us know by the witching hour on Monday, October 14 by writing to ksmith@dawsoncollege.qc.ca . Your name will be added to our enchanted list but remember it is up to each department to conjure your own stash of sweets.
All students are summoned to join the festivities, but beware: only those donned in the most spectacular costumes will be granted passage to claim their sweet, sugary treasures.
Be prepared for an afternoon of frightful fun and delightful treats on Thursday, Oct. 31 from 2 PM-3:30 PM!

In offices and learning spaces across the campus, homes of employees and schools connected to the Dawson community, Painted Lady butterflies are emerging this week creating a sense of wonder and connection to Nature and strengthening the community through sharing this special experience.
After a year hiatus, Dawson’s Office of Sustainability was delighted to distribute 425 Painted Lady caterpillars. Another 325 moved into the new Butterfly Nursery built by Industrial Design students and faculty in the rooftop garden.
This photo was taken by Natalie Trepanier of Student Services, who released her butterfly on Sept. 11 in the Peace Garden. If you fostered/are fostering butterflies, please share your photos and stories with commsoffice@dawsoncollege.qc.ca and sustainability@dawsoncollege.qc.ca
