At the Chaplaincy Centre, thoughts are with the students during exam time, their success, and yes, of course, the chili dinner. On the first two days of exams -- Monday and Tuesday, April 10 and 11, between 11:30 am–1:30 pm -- a chili dinner is served at the Chaplaincy Centre, free for the students. About 300 students show up each day with smiles and conversation. We are looking for faculty and staff to help out and provide encouragement for students on their exams. Sign up to volunteer if you're able to give some time.
