A Note from SCENT
This isn’t your weekly announcement of another SCENT blog post to go take a look at. Instead, it’s a big thank you, as the fall 2016 semester comes to a close, from SCENT to the campus community—for engaging so richly with our weekly blog and this semester’s theme of “what is university for?” The 12 blog posts for this semester elicited 1956 views and 57 comments, suggesting to us that a lot of you are reading and no doubt having other kinds of conversations about the posts. Apparently, our most popular blog posts were #2 and #5, and—no surprise—September and October were the busiest months. We think this is a huge success, as we aim to provoke and educate, and to get us all thinking together about the complexity of issues around this central theme. Stay tuned for the second week of January, when we’ll return with another semester’s worth of posts on the related and equally provocative theme “whom is university for?” Have a great break! And if you’re looking for some reading, and haven’t checked out all the posts yet, head on over to projects.upei.ca/scent and catch up on this semester’s articles.
