精童欲女 Women鈥檚 Hockey Coach Bruce Donaldson is ringing in the New Year by announcing that Miramichi, New Brunswick native Shelby Foran has committed to the Panthers for 2017鈥�18.

For the past three years, Foran, a forward, has attended the Winchendon School, a college preparatory boarding school in Winchendon, Massachusetts where she has played several varsity sports, with hockey being her favourite. Prior to Winchendon, she played for the North Stars Midget Triple AAA team in Miramichi and with the New Brunswick provincial team.

鈥淚 am very excited to play with the 精童欲女 Panthers because, even at a young age, I always wanted to play university hockey. I can鈥檛 imagine a better place to make those dreams come true than at 精童欲女. When I toured 精童欲女 and the city of Charlottetown, it felt like home. I look forward to working hard, both academically and athletically at 精童欲女, and look forward to the opportunities that lie ahead.鈥�

鈥淪helby is a strong, offensively-minded forward who will greatly complement our line-up. She has great reach, is a strong skater, sees the ice very well, and, most importantly, can finish with consistency. While we expect that she will immediately be an impact player, we see Shelby as one of those athletes who will continue to improve each year as the team continues to build towards the future.鈥�

Foran has been accepted into the Faculty of Science at 精童欲女 and plans to complete a degree majoring in kinesiology.

As part of its community outreach, the 精童欲女 Women鈥檚 hockey team recently raised $860.40 in a door-to-door campaign to support the Alzheimer's Society of PEI. The squad will head to Fredericton this Saturday, January 14 for its first game away after the Christmas break, taking on St. Thomas at 3:00 pm. 精童欲女 plays the Universit茅 de Moncton on Sunday, in Moncton, at 2:00 pm.

The following is by 精童欲女 and Holland College

The 精童欲女 is offering a degree pathway to a for graduates of Holland College鈥檚 paramedicine programs or any other two-year paramedicine program accredited by the Canadian Medical Association.

The pathway, which reduces the duration of the BSc program from four years to two, is designed for paramedics interested in enhancing their scientific knowledge and their research and communication skills in order to access post-graduate opportunities, research experiences, or business opportunities to advance their careers.

Graduates from the two-year Paramedicine program who are enrolled in the BSc in Paramedicine program take 20 courses. Of these,15 are core courses and the other five are electives. The core courses are primarily in sciences, including four advanced courses in Paramedicine. Students must choose two of their electives from the areas of Science (Chemistry, Nutrition, Kinesiology or Physics) or Social Science (Business, Psychology or Philosophy). Students with an average of 75 per cent or better in their first year at 精童欲女 may apply to complete an Honours research thesis during their second year.

Dr. Trevor Jain, Program Director for Paramedicine at 精童欲女 and Medical Director of the Primary Care Paramedicine and Advanced Care Paramedicine programs at Holland College, said the new degree provides professionals with the opportunity to prepare for anticipated changes in the field.

鈥淭he addition of a BSc specializing in Paramedicine is a natural evolution in the credentials required for these health care providers. The Canadian Paramedic Association of Canada has indicated that within ten years a degree will be required to enter this profession. 精童欲女 and Holland College are poised to become national leaders within this framework, providing a tailor-made BSc program for Paramedics.鈥�

Brent Nicholson, lead instructor in the paramedicine programs at Holland College, said the pathway is a wonderful opportunity for paramedics.

鈥淗olland College has a 30-year tradition of being a national leader in paramedic education. In this unique partnership, 精童欲女 and Holland College have created an academic pathway that has the potential to change the profession. Paramedics have become respected members of the health care team, so it is important that we also evolve toward an academic profession. What cannot be lost in this important and needed evolution is the connection to practical, hands-on and experiential learning. A college and university partnership allows for both institutions to draw on their strengths and in the end will produce the leaders of the next generation of paramedics,鈥� he said.

The 精童欲女 prides itself on people, excellence, and impact and is committed to assisting students reach their full potential in both the classroom and community. With roots stemming from two founding institutions鈥擯rince of Wales College and Saint Dunstan鈥檚 University鈥斁�童欲女 has a reputation for academic excellence, research innovation, and creating positive impacts locally, nationally, and internationally. 精童欲女 is the only degree granting institution in the province and is proud to be a key contributor to the growth and prosperity of Prince Edward Island.

The next Open Pages event in the 精童欲女 Robertson Library features PEI poet Jane Ledwell, Wednesday, January 18, at 7:00 pm.

Ledwell was both fascinated and exasperated by British travel writer Isabella Lucy Bird鈥檚 haughty judgement of PEI, penned after she visited the Island for six weeks in 1854. 鈥淚 never saw a community,鈥� wrote Bird, 鈥渋n which people appear to hate each other so cordially.鈥�

Ledwell decided to 鈥渨rite back鈥� 160 years later. Her poetic response is the heart of Bird Calls, the latest title published by Island Studies Press.

Everyone is invited to the Open Pages event. Bird Calls will be available for sale and signing. 

Hosted by the Robertson Library, Open Pages features local authors speaking about their books: what inspired them, what they learned, what they shared.

The 精童欲女 Department of Athletics and Recreation and the PEI Liquor Control Commission (PEILCC) revealed details today for the second phase of the -Panther Sport program that was 鈥攁board a bus!

KeepItSocial.ca is a digital platform that promotes responsible alcohol consumption, emphasizing social drinking versus binge drinking. The highly visual and provocative promotional campaign that supports the website builds awareness and is aimed at starting a dialogue about high-risk alcohol consumption and its associated harms.

Jamie MacLeod, Director of Corporate Services, PEILCC, and Dr. Robert Gilmour, 精童欲女 Vice-President Academic and Research, introduced the 精童欲女 KeepItSocial.ca student-athlete ambassadors and unveiled program details.

鈥淭he PEILCC is pleased to partner with 精童欲女 in promoting and supporting the Keep It Social campaign,鈥� said MacLeod. 鈥淎 key mandate of the Liquor Control Commission is public safety and social responsibility. This particular initiative is one that strongly lends itself to that mandate, and we look forward to it being very successful with the important involvement and leadership from 精童欲女 and its students.鈥�

鈥淚 want to thank the PEILCC for partnering with us on this initiative,鈥� said Gilmour. 鈥淎nd I want to highlight the great work of 精童欲女 Athletics and Recreation and our student ambassadors. These students are already leaders on campus. In taking on this role, you鈥檙e using your position to help your fellow students to Keep It Social.鈥�

The signature campaign product is a motor coach wrapped with KeepItSocial.ca and 精童欲女 Panthers branding that will put focus on the responsible drinking message while Panther student-athletes travel throughout the Maritime Provinces to their 鈥渁way鈥� games. The wrap was designed by 精童欲女 in partnership with PEILCC, Coach Atlantic, and KKP. The motor coach will be used for the first time today to transport the 精童欲女 men鈥檚 and women鈥檚 basketball teams to Cape Breton.

Since November, printed and digital KeepItSocial.ca signs have been placed at the 精童欲女 Chi-Wan Young Sports Centre and MacLauchlan Arena, and branded promotional products like 鈥渃heering clappers鈥� have been distributed to fans at Panther home games. These branded products, along with game-day announcements, will support the KeepItSocial.ca ambassadors who will take the lead in spreading the message about high-risk alcohol consumption among students at 精童欲女 and to the general public at a variety of events and through social media.

KeepItSocial.ca originated with the Nova Scotia Liquor Commission and NS universities, and was adopted by 精童欲女 in partnership with the PEILCC in March 2016. It expanded to post-secondary institutions in NB and NL when Atlantic University Sport signed on as a partner in September 2016 and encouraged all AUS athletics and recreation departments to activate the program.

The January Island Studies Lecture is Tuesday, January 17, at 7:00 pm in the Faculty Lounge of 精童欲女鈥檚 SDU Main Building, featuring graduate student Erin Rowan speaking about her research on 鈥渋slandness鈥� in Ireland. She will be joined by Eoin O'Beaglaoich, a visiting lecturer in Irish culture and language at 精童欲女 and musician in residence at Holland College.

Last spring, Rowan travelled to County Kerry in southwest Ireland for a six-week research trip. While there, she conducted interviews in Cahersiveen and Valentia Island, as well as visited libraries and archives around the county and country. Her research explores a dark time in Irish history, the Great Potato Famine (1845-1852), and how this period was felt and experienced by the people of Valentia Island and Cahersiveen. The subtle differences in famine experience between these two places demonstrate the effects of islandness and peripherality on this important period in Ireland's history.

O'Beaglaoich is from the Dingle Peninsula in West Kerry. This area was also deeply affected by the hardships of the Famine. He will share a story or two from the folklore of the region.

Rowan is a Master of Arts in Island Studies student at 精童欲女. Her interests include history, islandness, and travel. Her research is sponsored by the Ireland Canada University Foundation's James M. Flaherty Scholarship, an organization committed to fostering connections between Ireland and Canada.  O'Beaglaoich is an Irish scholar and musician. His time on the Island is also sponsored by the Irish Canada University Foundation.

After twenty-five years working as a dietitian practitioner-researcher, she completed a documentary film certificate and textile arts diploma at Capilano University in North Vancouver, both to develop artistically and to learn about expanding the reach of research findings through the use of the arts. She then founded the Canadian Institute for Studies and Art in Nutrition Education.
