The University 100 Vern Smitheram and Andy Robb Leadership Development Series 2017 Elyse Cottrell is the first UPEI student to be awarded a prestigious 3M National Student Fellowship through the Society for Teaching and Learning in Higher Education (STLHE). The 3M National Student Fellowship honours up to ten full-time students at Canadian post-secondary institutions who have demonstrated outstanding leadership in their lives, at their post-secondary institution. These students embrace a vision of education that enhances their academic experience and beyond. We are delighted to celebrate this accomplishment and hear her speak about the work she is involved with as a disability rights advocate, and the importance of access to services, and inclusion, for all. Elyse will also discuss the 3M National Student Fellowship program.    Everyone is welcome to attend.
