Petition to add Social Service to Bourses Perspective program
March 9th, 2022
The Quebec Government has launched a new program called Bourses Perspective, which are incentive scholarships for Québec students who are enrolled full-time in various programs at Québec CEGEPs, private colleges and universities. It is intended to increase the number of qualified individuals in the fields prioritized by the government due to a labour shortage in essential public services as well as in strategic economic sectors.
You have three more days to add your name to a petition calling on the government to add the Social Service Program.
Please sign the petition before it closes on March 12.

Dawson continuing to advocate for student space
February 16th, 2022
In the coming days and weeks, Dawson will be rallying our students, employees, graduates, supporters and community to put pressure on the Quebec government to reconsider its decision to cancel the infrastructure project that it agreed to in December 2020. The project was meant to alleviate the overcrowding in the main building and to provide a dedicated space for Dawson’s healthcare programs and other units.
The College is collaborating with CEGEP partners, the Dawson Student Union, friends of Dawson and community organizations, as well as with Jennifer Maccarone, our local Member of the National Assembly.
Your support as Dawson colleagues will be called upon through an All Dawson email from the Communications Office. Students will be contacted via Omnivox and the community in general will be informed through traditional and social media.
These messages will provide suggestions on how you can help as individuals and by sharing with your networks as we actively seek support for Dawson through various channels. Stay tuned!
