(From Tracy Crowe) Survey – We have received 153 responses to our survey, which is just short of 50% of Year 1 candidates. Your feedback, as well as the information collected by FESA, has been very valuable and we have started to work on addressing your concerns for the second semester. We will share the results next week. It would be great to hear more of your voices. If you would like to add your opinion, the survey link is https://www.surveymonkey.ca/r/QK3VV2S.
