Assiniboine College and Brandon University teamed up once again with the Brandon Chamber of Commerce to host ConnectED, a conference-style event that matched more than 80 students with dozens of professionals in fields they’re interested in.

Students rotated through 30‑minute mentorship rounds, hosted by one to two industry leaders, where they could ask questions and build meaningful connections with a variety of professions and sectors. Following the afternoon sessions, students joined members of the community and fellow alumni from both institutions for a come-and-go mixer.

Brandon University’s Aimée Schmidt (BSc’25) will soon journey to Montreal as a national finalist for the McCall MacBain Scholarships at McGill.

Established with a landmark $200-million gift in 2019, the McCall MacBain Scholarships are Canada’s largest leadership-based scholarships for master’s and professional studies.

Some of Brandon University’s most committed supporters were recognized with heartfelt praises at the annual BU Foundation luncheon last week.

Donors to the BU Foundation heard directly from students who had felt the impact of their support, as well as from BU breast cancer researcher Dr. Mousumi Majumder.
