CMU shaping what quality work-integrated learning looks like in Canada
Canadian Mennonite University (CMU) has been selected as one of the top institutions in Canada to develop a national quality work-integrated learning (QWIL) certification.
In collaboration with 12 other institutions, this venture operates through Canada's leading organization in the field, Co-operative Education and Work-Integrated Learning (CEWIL).
Alumni in their own words - Kelly Hearne (CMBC '95)
Where has your life taken you since you left CMU?
I graduated from CMBC in 1995, which feels like a lifetime ago and yet only last week. There is this dual reality in my head where I feel like I'm still the same person I was back in the 1990s and my core personality is exactly as it was when I was sitting in the lounge in what is now Poettcker Hall, (but was back then, just 'the res'). That said, I also know that the emotional and mental growth I've gone through in the intervening years has almost transformed me into someone else. How can I be the same, and yet, completely different? I have spent a lot of time thinking about this.
Announcing the P.M. Friesen Chair in Biblical and Theological Studies
Edwin and Agnes Redekopp of Winnipeg have gifted CMU with a $2,000,000 endowment, to create the P.M. Friesen Chair in Biblical and Theological Studies (BTS).
The Edwin and Agnes Redekopp Endowment Fund will support permanent financing for a position at CMU that ensures the ongoing strength of BTS excellence in teaching, research, and service—particularly in ways that provide service to the Mennonite Brethren (MB) church tradition and draw on its witness.
