My Nipissing

Varsity rowing has arrived at Nipissing University. Perhaps the most iconic of all university sports, rowing conjures images of Ivy-league crews and historic Oxford versus Cambridge races. Now with varsity status, Nipissing’s rowing team takes its place among the traditional university powers in the sport, provincially and nationally.

Today, we are pleased to profile Megan Hives, a Concurrent Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Education, Geography student and Dave Marshall Leadership Award winner in the community category.

Congratulations to Dr. Dean Hay, associate professor in the bachelor of physical and health education, and coach of Nipissing’s rowing team, on winning a recent photography contest held by the University of Toronto.

Congratulations to Dr. Pavlina Radia, associate dean of the Faculty of Arts and Science, and director of the Centre for Interdisciplinary Collaborations in the Arts and Sciences, on the publication of her new book, Nomadic Modernisms and Diasporic Journeys of Djuna Barnes and Jane Bowles: “Two Very Serious Ladies” (Brill).
